The **Tiger Shark** (rarely referred to by the fanbase as tiger) is one of the Tier 10 Animals in Deeeep.io. It is based on its real life counterpart, *Galeocerdo cuvier*, and instead of brute force, players using this animal have to rely on stealth, through its two Passive Abilities.

## Appearence

The **Tiger Shark** in Deeeep.io appears to have a brown body, with a white underbelly and stripes in a darker shade of brown on its sides. It had a downward facing mouth with red lips and teeth resembling those of its real life counterpart. Instead of being on the sides of the sprite, the three pairs of gill slits on the **Tiger Shark** is located between its upperbody and underbelly.

Once the Tiger Shark prowls near the terrain, it turns translucent, and none of these features can be seen easily by its prey.

## Mechanics

Here are the mechanics that apply to the **Tiger Shark** in the Free for All game mode. (Deeeep.io v4 [Snow and Below] Beta, 2022)

* Wobbegong Sharks evolve into **Tiger Sharks**, Basking Sharks and Whale Sharks. 48,000XP is required for the former to evolve into these animals.
* **Tiger Sharks** are Tier 10 Animals which is at the top of the Evolutionary Tree. Tier 10 is the final level of evolution, meaning that  **Tiger Sharks** are unable to evolve further.
* Like other Tier 10 Animals, friendly fire is turned off (friendly fire refers to the ability to attack another animal. If it is turned on, the said animals are able to hurt each other) against Tier 1 Animals (excluding Worms and Tier 1 Piranhas) as a **TIger Shark**.
* **Tiger Sharks** drop a skeleton and meat upon death [the quantity of meat drop by every tier has to be calculated one day].

## Abilities

## Suitable Habitats

Each animal will at least have three types of habitat that is suitable for them to live in. The biome they are in must have at least one similar trait out of each habitat class for it to be suitable for the animal to live in. Suitable habitats for a **Tiger Shark** are Warm, Salt and Shallow Waters.

* If a **Tiger Shark** leaves a Warm habitat, it will lose temperature.
* If a **Tiger Shark** leaves a Salt habitat, it will lose salinity.
* If a **Tiger Shark** leaves a Shallow habitat, it will lose pressure.
* If a **Tiger Shark** gets out of the water, it will lose oxygen.

## Hiding Places

Hiding Places are props that allow animals to hide. Each animal has different hiding places that are suitable for them. At most cases, the bigger the animal, the fewer the Hiding Places they can interact with. Below are the Hiding Places that can be used for the **Tiger Shark**.

## Skins

Skins are cosmetics used to change an animal's looks, or sometimes, an animal’s biome or size statistics slightly. The table below shows the list of approved skins that can be used for the **Tiger Shark**.

### Realistic Skins

Realistic skins can be used at every time of the year. They are mostly based on real-life species or adjectives such as 'Battle-Scarred' or 'Dark'.

### Seasonal Skins

Seasonal skins can only be used in certain seasons, such as Christmas, Lunar New Year etc. They will disappear from the Store once the Season is over, but will be back next year, and remain in the player's inventory if they bought them.

## Trivia

* The Sand Tiger Shark is the first Tiger Shark skin to be added to the game. It was added in 2019, while the others were added in a skin batch in 2021.
* Iridescent basically means shimmering or sparkling. There is such a fish called the Iridescent Shark in real life, except that it is a catfish instead of a shark.
* The Tiger Shark is widely considered by the community as one of, if not the, most balanced Tier 10 animals in the game.
