Solution

The given statement is false. Although a tiger does not eat plants, it still depends on the plants. This is because tigers feed on herbivores such as deer which obtain their food from the plants. If the plants are not available, then these herbivores will not get food and consequently, tiger will not get any food. Thus, tiger depends on plant for their food.
