Just read a story that they were expected to be treed for at least another 4 days.

Shouldn't have killed the tiger cub. Mama tigers are worse that mama bears when it comes to their babies.

According to the article in Daily Mail, the guy was not mauled to death, he was torn apart and eaten.

A scene from Quest for Fire comes into mind.

They were taken to the hospital where they were treed and released.

Article says the guy who was mauled to death had climbed the tree, but the branch broke, causing him to fall to the ground, where he was pounced upon by the tigers. Terrible way to die.

It surely would have been a rather quick way to go. Excited tigers are strong and fast. Consider the genius kids who taunted the tiger in SF a couple of years ago and enticed it to spring at them.

Where these poachers?

If they were, I would not care if tigers ate all of them.

Tigers can’t climb trees? Black bears can!

How do they know the tigers were angry?

I have little sympathy for people who go traipsing around in wild country unarmed.

So, what happened to the cub? Daid, still trapped, reunited with his kin?
