In a city zoo (particularly if it is a zoo in one of the big cities of the world), the enclosure for tigers should be at least twelve feet high, twelve feet long and twelve feet wide. If the dimensions of the cage are smaller than 12 feet by 12 feet by 12 feet (that is, 1, 728 cubic feet), the tiger will feel cramped in the cage and not be able to pace up and down majestically.
A cage measuring at least 1, 728 cubic feet is required to accommodate a full-grown pair of adult tigers. On an average, the combined weight of a male and a female adult tiger would be more than 500 kilograms and the combined height of a male and a female adult tiger would be more than six metres.
