What the . . . ?

I've driven through Atlanta at rush hour. It was bad. If I'd seen this, I'd probably have assumed I'd fallen asleep behind the wheel and was dreaming. But it was no dream:

Revelation 6:8
So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.

“I guess they don’t have any tranquilizer Dart Guns in Atlanta.”

They have them, and there was a request for them. But before the guns arrived, the cat jumped fences and was closing in on a school bus stop with kids. They had to take it.

Sad as these animals are endangered and are being harvested by poachers. In the wild, there are about 3200 tigers left according to Nation Geographic in 13 countries. But there are considerable in zoo’s to include the US and there has been a successful breeding program. So we are increasing the tiger population. But not in the wild. These zoo bred animals could not survive in the wild as they don’t know how and they could not be introduced in the wild with other tigers as they are extremely territorial and would kill the newcomers. Sad
