Aus der Serie "Mission: Rettung der Tiere" (hier zuletzt: "Mission: Rettet die Elefanten") befasst sich der vorliegende Band mit der weltweit größten Raubkatze: dem Tiger. In 6 Kapiteln wird den Lesern alles Wissenswerte nähergebracht. Neben den körperlichen Merkmalen werden auch die Lebensräume der Tiere, ihr Sozialverhalten, ihr Jagdverhalten, das Verhältnis Mensch-Tiger und die bisherigen Maßnahmen zur Rettung der noch frei lebenden Tiere thematisiert. Zahlreiche Illustrationen sowie informative Einschübe über Tierforscher und -schützer sowie kurze Zusatzinformationen zu den Tieren lockern die Sachtexte auf. Jedes Kapitel schließt mit einer Doppelseite, die zu einer eigenen "Rettungsaktion" mittels verschiedener Ideenvorschläge animiert. Im Anhang finden sich zahlreiche Quellen für weitere Recherchen der jungen Tierschützer - diese sind allerdings überwiegend auf Englisch
