Anatomy

The tiger monkey is bipedal in appearance, possessing the body of a monkey and the fur of a tiger. It has orange skin with large, cream-colored patches on its stomach and legs, as well as a long, thin tail. There is a line of light skin running from eye to eye and black stripes streak across its scalp between large round ears that jut out of its head. It also possesses long claws on its hands and feet and large fangs that protrude from its mouth. When sitting, the tiger monkey crouches on its hind legs and extends its front-most arms, with its tail resting upright.

Connection

The tiger monkey is a hybrid of a tiger and a monkey.
