'I personally have had full-grown 15-year-old adult tigers that I swam with and adult ligers [cross between a lion and tiger].

They are pretty much my most favorite animal, but what sucks is when the pencil markings get all smudged from the water...

Does anyone know where I can get a realistic tiger costume, preferably waterproof? It’s for, um, Halloween.

Pictures are tooo cute.

Reminds me of the Sigfried and Roy white tigers playing in the water at the Mirage....always entertaining a large crowd.

More accurate headline, “Tigers Swim with Tasty Dish.”

“Keeping their 200lb frames afloat takes quite a bit of effort, which is why their handlers join them in the water to keep a close eye on their progress.”

The tigers have to work harder to keep their heads above water because they don’t have the built-in floatation devices the women do.

Hubba hubba.

If they happen to have a little Mississippi Leg Hound in them, if they get started, it’s best to just let them finish.

I’m with the tigers. I’d like nothing more than to swim with them either.

"Tyger tyger, burning bright, in the forests of the night

What immortal hand or eye dare frame thy fearful symmetry".

Some one whose monthly arrives a little early will get a lesson on what a tiger's teeth are all about.

'Tigers have a natural desire and ability to swim,' said Dr Bhagavan Antle

Gosh these people are IDIOTS!!! Tigers have a natural desire to EAT YOU!!!!!
Why do people try to think these animals are anything but natural predators?!?!?!?!
Please don't anyone post the inevitable post that says "Tigers maul bikini-clad trainer"
Can't happen? Ask Sigfield and Roy. That's what they said too. (grumble grumble......ARGH!!)
