tiger shrimp
Large banded prawn
Tiger shrimp are large prawns marked with distinctive dark stripes, native to Asian and Australian waters but now found globally.
They're prized in cooking for their size and firm texture: grilled tiger shrimp with garlic butter.
The species has become invasive in some regions, outcompeting native shrimp populations.
