  Amazing! (No Animals Were Harmed)

  

  Tigers are actually born with stripes on its skin! Under all that fur are MORE STRIPES! 

  Basically, the skin is striped "because the colored hair follicles embedded in the skin are visible, similar to a man's five-o'clock shadow."
  

  This isn't just for tigers but goes for all animals with sports, stripes and dots!
