As part of the giveaway for Tiger Paw by Charles A. Cornell, the author decided to do a contest within the giveaway for more chances to win.

Charles offered three more e-books to the three people to first answer this riddle:

What is one thing tigers CAN’T do that other big cats can do?

Here were the clues:

1) Tigers can do this when they are little, but as they get older they get too heavy!

2) They can do this in one direction but have trouble in the other!

3) In cases of danger, like flooding, they will do this to save themselves, but normally they are reluctant to do it.

The answer is….climb trees!

Tigers will climb trees up to the age of sixteen months but after this age, they’re too heavy for the branches! In the monsoon season in India and Bangladesh, they will climb a tree to escape flooding, but as the video below shows, they can get up the tree but have difficulty getting down. They can’t figure out that they need to descend backwards!
