When something standing in front of a 450 lb. kitty smells like fish, what does one expect it to do? Seriously, bad way to go.

I imagine after a period of time the villagers beating of the drums just acts as a dinner bell for the tigers.

I read a story about this ten years ago.
Some fisherman wore hats with “eyes” painted on the back, to keep the tigers from thinking they’d circled behind their prey. Supposedly, it worked.

I don’t know. I do know that some domestic cat species, like Bengals, love water.
