$100,000? Luxury?

Obama wouldn’t go on vacation unless it was a few million bucks.

‘Man is the only animal that kills for sport; the tiger’s belly is full.

I dunno, some dogs kill small animals when they aren't hungry

He loved the one to Thailand where his grandchildren got to hold tiger cubs in their laps and he leash-walked a full-grown tiger, raised from birth by monks. “We were out in the woods and we saw an antelope,” Mr. Barber said. “The tiger got stiff and followed him with his eyes. Then he relaxed and went on walking. The monk turned to me and said, ‘Man is the only animal that kills for sport; the tiger’s belly is full.'  ” The Tiger Monks are a well-known, and not entirely reputable tourist fixture in Thailand. You could get there for well under $3,000.00 from wherever you might happen to be reading this, and most of that would be airfare.

I have NOTHING TO PROVE with wild animals.

I RESPECT them to the point of understanding that as tame and as nice as they may act at any moment, they can turn on me in a flash, and that’s the end of my time on the planet. Whether it’s the deepest jungle in Africa, or Baltimore, I simply WILL NOT tempt them. I give them their space because there are plenty of other things for me to do where my odds for survival are much higher.
