Tiger is on the loose in Houston

[MuggsyB]

Please God allow this Tiger not to be hurt or killed.  If he takes out a few people prosecute the "caretaker".  Tigers are not pets, nor are they to be trifled with for any reason.  Hopefully he winds up safe and in a big cat sanctuary.

Wow, that's a quick recovery from his car accident. Hopefully Perkins restaurants have been notified.

Scumbag.  Perhaps this Tiger should be allowed to attack this dude with zero mercy Herman?  These kind of stories absolutely drive me up the wall.  I can't even imagine the anxiety this poor Tiger is going through.

I didn't realize he even left Jupiter. Hope he's happy in Houston!

I live a mile away as the crow flies from Tiger World.

During the evening and early morning, we can hear the lions roaring.
A couple years ago a deer was road kill and ended up in my neighbor's field.  He hauled the carcass over to Tiger World for the big cats to have a little venison.

Muggsy -
I am Pro Tiger as well.  Hopefully, they find The Tiger ( whose is 9 months old and named India) and put it in a good home.

May God keep young India well during this disastrous situation.  9 mos old, he's a baby.  If he gets angry it is totally understandable and not his fault in the slightest.  His "owner" is an asshead and a criminal.  I desperately hope this young tiger can be found by the animal/wildlife authorities and brought to a big cat sanctuary.  There was a article title which read:  Fugitive Tiger Still Evades Arrest.  What a bunch of b-ass and inexcusable.  The "journalist" responsible for this absurd and dishonest title should lose their job immediately and give 10K to a Tiger sanctuary.

If you want to apply this standard to journalists, we'd need to build a few more jails.

Let's pray (even you Mike) that this is not the tiger's fate.

That brings up a question. What is the most exotic meat you have tried?

I really liked the filet de cheval at Joe Beef in Montreal.
Adam's Rib in Zionsville Indiana (has been closed for awhile) used to serve lion, giraffe, and Zebra. Never tried it.

[pbiflyer]

Back in the day, the Public Natatorium in Milwaukee had quite the exotic selection.

[MUBurrow]

I hear you Muggs.  I share the soft spot for this kind of thing that you have.  Hard not to get real existentially depressed when you see these horrible interactions between humanity and charismatic animals.

Had several types of antelope and gazelle when I was in South Africa, all very delicious. Eaten crocodile before, didn't love it to be honest but didn't hate it either. Have had shark a few times but couldn't tell you what kinds of shark.

This Tiger is in grave danger and we continue to decimate their populations, psychologically damage them and all sorts of cool animals, and now we have "journalists" calling them fugitives???  I will not calm down.  Our treatment of these wonderful members of our planet is ignominious and those involved in their massacres in any way, shape, or form should suffer severe consequences. 

If there is one issue that we can all agree on it should definitely be protecting our endangered animal species and stopping poaching and the illegal pet trade.  This is grotesque.  Do you have any idea how many badass elephants and rhinos there once were vs now?  It's a complete travesty and upsets me greatly.

According to this article someone is hiding the Tiger

I mean, the tiger is literally a "fugitive" isn't he?

Muggsy, the journalist did not call the Tiger a fugitive. From your own post:

There was a article title which read:  Fugitive Tiger Still Evades Arrest. 

The journalist used fugitive as an adjective, which per Merriam-Webster means "running away or intending flight."

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fugitive

So the journalist calling this a fugitive tiger is correct. Even if the journalist mean it as a noun, here is the definition from Merriam-Webster: "a person who flees or tries to escape", so again the journalist would correct in calling the Tiger a fugitive since the Tiger is escaping an abusive owner.

I'm assuming you are joking, but no a journalist should not lose their job and be fined $10K for correct use of the word fugitive.

[StillAWarrior]

I'm assuming you are joking...

Yeah...I don't think so.
