Tigers can climb trees, lions can't.

I have taken many photos of lions in acacia trees that show lions do indeed climb trees. (Lions climb trees to escape heat, spot prey and to nap)
​
A google search will find many examples.

I like tiger, or tigers (I don't know which is correct!). I went looking for them in India as well, and saw a few.
​
Uber cool! It is on my bucket list to see a tiger in the wild. I have friends who have lived in India who want to plan a Ranthambore National Park India safari some day. Is that the park where you saw the tigers? Any further suggestion or advise you could give?

I'd prefer to spot a siberian tiger, but I don't believe there is any guide/tracker who wouldn't charge a LOT for this non-touristy service. I am off to Mongolia in September, unfortunately the range of Siberian Tigers does not quite extend to this area.
