    This document contains a table showing the typical weights in kilograms of tiger cubs from birth to 11 weeks of age. The table lists the expected body weight for cubs at each week of age. It can be used to determine the predicted weight of cubs at specific ages and the age at which cubs typically reach a given weight. A graph of the data would show an increasing pattern of weight with age during the period shown.
