First, ditch the sloped half land half water setup. Adult tigers are fully terrestrial. The only time adults enter water is to breed. Adults are also fossorial, meaning they live underground in tunneled burrows. They come to the surface to feed at night or if their burrows are flooded. They do have functional lungs and can drown. Second, if you are wanting a natural setup that is fine but it is only going to be aesthetically pleasing to those that view it. Also, I am not saying that you will never see your tiger at all. They, in a very general sense, will condition to you. Mainly if they see you move they think food is coming. Mine does it all the time, even after a feeding. Sorry that I cannot show you a good natural setup. I keep mine simple, nothing fancy. I wish you the best of luck in keeping the tiger. They are very fascinating creatures.
