The '''Khoirentak tiger''' ({{lang-mni|ꯈꯣꯢꯔꯦꯟꯇꯥꯛ ꯀꯤ ꯀꯩꯔꯦꯜ}}) was a viscous monster in [[Meitei mythology]] that lived in [[Khoirentak]].

The tiger caused havoc to the people of the Khoirentak in [[Ancient Moirang]], thereby becoming the ''"man eater"'' of the region. Finally, [[Khuman Khamba]] and [[Nongban]] were ordered by the king, to catch the beast.<ref>https://books.google.co.in/books?id=GXJOAAAAYAAJ&q=khoirentak+tiger&dq=khoirentak+tiger&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjOkKbb9YTvAhWPbysKHVntBB0Q6AEwAHoECAAQAw</ref> In the first encounter, [[Nongban]] was killed by the tiger and at the final meet, [[Khuman Khamba]] successfully captured and killed it.<ref>https://books.google.co.in/books?id=qtkjAQAAIAAJ&q=khoirentak+tiger&dq=khoirentak+tiger&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjOkKbb9YTvAhWPbysKHVntBB0Q6AEwAnoECAMQAw</ref><ref>https://books.google.co.in/books?id=Bby1AAAAIAAJ&q=khoirentak+tiger&dq=khoirentak+tiger&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjOkKbb9YTvAhWPbysKHVntBB0Q6AEwA3oECAQQAw</ref> Finally, when he brought it to the capital city of [[Ancient Moirang]], [[Moirang Thoibi|Thoibi]] was given to him, hand in marriage.<ref>https://books.google.co.in/books?id=GXJOAAAAYAAJ&q=khoirentak+tiger&dq=khoirentak+tiger&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjOkKbb9YTvAhWPbysKHVntBB0Q6AEwAHoECAAQAw</ref><br />
