Actually, it is a "she".

I am not familiar with the history mentioned above. For me the tiger is magestic and regal, the photo, beautiful color contrast, well composed with sharp focus. #2550095

Hi, Melissa,
I entered this this morning. In my haste I oversharpened and oversaturated, which left some streaky blue pixels going acros the rump and the front paws. Did not look very good. So, this is a resubmission.
Actually, this is one of my favorites from the Calgary Zoo. #2550104
