SAD news... Rama, Dreamworld’s oldest tiger has passed away at the age of 19 after a short illness. RIP Rama

Lisa Hart Thank you Rama for all the joy you brought to people. RIP. xoxoxo Michael Carter How old do they live in the wild?

Stephen Sheffield The life span of the tiger: On average tigers will live for 10 to 15 years out in the wild and 16 to 20 years in captivity, though there is one Australian tiger recorded as living to the ripe old age of 26.

Melanie Jane Blundell Swift Wings Rama you were one very loved feline.

Connie Leo The tigers and other wildlife at Dreamworld are very looked after and much loved by their handlers and other staff. I don’t claim to know everything about tigers but the report is a tiger in the wild lives 10-12 years. Rama living 19 years is a credit to the staff of dreamworld and also this beautiful tiger.

Vicki Pieper RIP Rama, you gave a lot of people a great deal of happiness... Dingoweir Toni So sad she was lovely, captivity kept her alive longer than in the wild.

Lisa Weatherley Captivity extended his life by almost double! The love and care they provide is unquestionable. Kuzza Lee Sciacca He or she was absolutely beautiful.
