The tiger is the third of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals and is known for being brave, powerful and agile. As a tattoo design, tigers can be portrayed in a number of different ways. Some people choose to get traditional tattoos with bold black lines, while others prefer more colourful designs that depict the animal in a more abstract manner.

Tiger tattoos are a fantastic choice for people looking for an animal tattoo design that encapsulates the Chinese zodiac symbol. However, tiger tattoos hold other meanings too and often represent various different things to different people. However, whatever style of tattoo you opt for, tattoos of tigers are sure to make a statement.
