The Weretiger or Werecat, also known as the Harimau jadian in some of the countries where it supposedly occurs, is a feline cryptid said to inhabit the forests of Asia.

Description[]

Although some variations of the beast exist, most agree that the creature looks like a humanoid tiger. In some countries, Weretigers are humans with the ability to shapeshift into a tiger.

Usually, the cryptid would eat human livestock, although it was not uncommon for them to eat humans.

Sightings[]

Weretiger sightings have become increasingly rare in recent years, likely due to the decline of wild tiger populations, which were originally linked to most reported encounters.
