About Tiger Coloring Pages
Tiger Coloring Pages is a small, independent project built around one idea: good tiger colouring pages should be free, printable in a single click, and good enough that an adult wants to finish one too.
This site exists because most printable tiger pages are either locked behind a "download" form that wants your email address first, or so low-resolution that they turn to mush the moment you print them at full page size. Neither is a good deal, so this site does neither.
How the artwork is made
Every tiger on this site is original line art, drawn as vector artwork for printing. That means two practical things. First, the files stay sharp whether you print them on a sticky-note-sized sheet or blow them up to A3 poster size. Second, the lines are the right weight for crayons and washable markers rather than for a laser printer, so nothing smudges or disappears.
The site is built from scratch as static files - there is no account system, no tracking of individual visitors beyond what a normal web server logs, and no advertising network that profiles the people who print the pages.
How it is organised
There are 53 tiger colouring pages at the moment, filed by style. The cute tiger pages and baby tiger pages are the ones small children will want. The realistic pages and mandala pages are drawn for adults and for older children who have the patience for detail. The easy pages exist for anyone who needs a page that can be finished in ten minutes.
Printing tips
- Choose Letter or A4 in the print dialog - the artwork is square, so it fits both with a margin.
- Set Scale to Fit. Without it some printers crop the edge.
- Plain paper is fine for crayons. Use card stock for felt pens and paint.
- Every page also has a PDF and an SVG download if you would rather print from a file than from the browser.
Tigers and conservation
Tigers are endangered in the wild. Fewer than four thousand remain in the wild today, and habitat loss and poaching are the two biggest reasons why. The drawing here is a cartoon - it is not an attempt to be a scientific illustration - but it is a small way of keeping the animal familiar to people who will never see one in a forest.
If you want to do more than colour, the two most effective things are to support the organisations that run tiger corridors and anti-poaching units, and to avoid buying any product made from tiger parts or from wildlife that is not legal to trade. Both are covered in more detail by the WWF and by the Wildlife Trade Convention's public information pages.
