Actually I think Balinese Tiger should redirect to Bali Tiger, not the other way round. E.g., http://www.tigerhomes.org/animal/curriculums/bali-tiger-pc.cfm
There are 9830 results in google for "bali tiger", but only 689 for "balinese tiger"
I expanded this stub from the measly "general information" heading that was there to what it is now. Now to figure out how to get rid of the "stub" status..
Stop using these two words as synonyms. Bali tiger is not a species of any kind. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.153.51.174 ( talk) 18:47, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Balinese Tiger → Bali Tiger I think the latter is a lot more common. There are 10,100 Google hits for "Bali Tiger" and only 774 for "Balinese Tiger". -- Khoikhoi 20:10, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
According to his cousin, Agung Krisna shot one of these in the late 1970's or 1980. I spoke to his cousin and Agung in 1981, and saw a photo of Agung, with a gun and an extremely small tiger. Agung was very proud that he'd shot a tiger. His cousin (I can't remember his name, but he was a student at the University of New England at the time - it was 26 years ago so perhaps I'm allowed to forget his name) and I were both shocked to see how small it was (smaller than the one shown in this article - perhaps it was a young one). Agung was related to the Maharajah's family somehow, and had a role in the local nature cult dealing with the Holy Mount Agung. Perhaps someone from Bali might be able to get some more information. If the photo and Agung's tale were true, then this article is at best 40 years wrong. Johnpf 13:15, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
"Tiger" is not a name, so shouldn't it be "Bali tiger"? HandsomeFella ( talk) 12:22, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
Are there any other pictures of a Bali Tiger other than the dead one on a stick? -- Candy-Panda 08:20, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
So I rated this as a start class. My reasoning?
For a start class article, these are required :
A particularly useful picture or graphic - Present. Whilst a better picture should be added for the cat itself, the map does certain justice Multiple links that help explain or illustrate the topic - Present. A subheading that fully treats an element of the topic - Present. Multiple subheadings that indicate material that could be added to complete the article - Present. If you would like to discuss this rating, mention it on my Talk page. Thanks. TheVaultDweller 00:44, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Apart from the controversy over whether or not the IUCN's view is actually valid, I know that the IUCN proposed that tigers be grouped into P. t. tigris and P. t. sondaica, but does that mean that we should say that the IUCN is saying that the Balinese tiger is a population of the "Javan tiger subspecies," which is commonly understood to mean tigers in Java, instead of the "Sunda Island tiger subspecies"? Leo1pard ( talk) 06:47, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
Note that the 1st by Kupferschmidt is 2 years older than the Cat SG's special issue about revised taxonomy. The 2nd does not even reference any source! Since when do journos have expertise in taxonomy? These don't show a dispute. And when has the 3rd been updated? -- BhagyaMani ( talk) 12:33, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
Apparently, you have no idea about this kind of procedure. CCT members comprised all who published about taxonomic questions re Felidae since at least the turn of the century. And they worked on this revision for several years. You did not even read it. But want to question their expertise? How ridiculous, am sorry to write this! -- BhagyaMani ( talk) 12:45, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
My reply does not need repetition and is in Talk:Cape lion#Ethiopian lion. -- BhagyaMani ( talk) 14:36, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

The Addis Ababa zoo lions have dark manes and small bodies, unlike other African lions. But life in captivity can sometimes influence appearance. A team of researchers, led by the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Germany and the University of York in the UK, checked to see if the lions really are different by comparing DNA samples of 15 lions from the zoo to six populations of wild lions. Their genetic analysis revealed that the gene sequence of all fifteen lions were unique and showed little sign of inbreeding. The study was recently published in the European Journal of Wildlife Research.

We have 3 images of Bali tiger that I'll put down. You can vote one of them to appear in the main box. I would like you all to vote, althought I know the results because I am no one in this wiki to get supported by anyone, I still want to discuss this. — Some1 { talk} 07:33, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

First of all, the current image, does barely show the tiger, the second one the same, the first one in the other hand, shows the full tiger's body. If any of you now complains that wild tiger images are better, I would add that the tiger was one of the 2 tigers captured by hungarian hunters in the Island, and was sold to the tamer, so it is a wild animal. — Some1 { talk} 07:39, 15 August 2020 (UTC), re-edited, Some1 { talk} 08:20, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
