Solution

The correct option is C Tiger is the national bird of India.
A tiger is a wild animal that lives in dense jungles. It eats the meat of other animals like deer, so, it is a carnivore. Tiger has golden yellow-orange fur with brown or black stripes. Tigers are decreasing in number because people have been hunting them for their skin and claws. Tiger is the national animal of India, not the national bird.
