उत्तर

It was unnatural of the 450-pound heavy tiger to lie quietly for two and half days unnoticed by Pi in the lower deck of the boat. It was suffering from seasickness and sedation. Pi’s father had sedated it early to lessen the stress of the sea voyage on the animal. That is why it behaved unnaturally.
