Cooling Down Time Original Painting (Stephen Gayford's private originals collection)
(OASGO5)
 
Comments:

The tiger spends much of its time during the heat of a summer’s day half submerged in lakes and ponds to keep cool as the daytime air temperature regularly reaches over 40 degrees C. There are even numerous instances of them hunting and chasing their prey through water. Tigers may love water, but they do not like to get it in their eyes and will frequently enter backwards to ensure this doesn't happen. When emerging from water, they'll often shake like a dog to remove the excess water from their coats. Drenching and drying keeps tigers cool during the hottest part of the day. They follow a pattern of soaking for about an hour, then returning to dry land where the winds have a cooling effect on the wet body. As the benefits start to wear off they once more return for another cooling soak.
