Mainly old or injured tigers become man eaters because it becomes difficult for them to kill their normal prey.

Tigers rarely eat humans. Attacks mostly occur in cases of mistaken identity, where the tiger may be old, injured, or unable to hunt its usual prey. It is important to remember that tigers see humans as a threat and not as prey.

Because they're hungry. Only joking. They are carnivores so they eat meat to survive. Humans are a source of meat.
