The Bengal tigers in the mangrove forest of the Sundarbans are unique because they are the only population of tigers that have adapted to a semiaquatic life. They are smaller and stockier than their mainland counterparts. Some tigers in the Sundarbans have preyed on humans, mostly gatherers of wild honey and other forest products, who venture deep into the mangrove forest.
