Big cats whose stripes are unique like fingerprints (6)

I believe the answer is:

tigers

(Other definitions for tigers that I've seen before include "Large striped felines" , "Big striped cats poetically burning bright" , "Sir, get to the animals" , "Great striped animals, poetically burning bright" , "Large forest felines" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
