WHOA! Live Baby Tiger Rescued from Box at Airport
ABC15 ^ | Feb 12, 2018 | Kari Van Horn

Mexican inspectors opened a plastic container and discovered a sedated Bengal tiger cub someone attempted to express-mail. Police K9s looking for contraband found the cub and tipped off their handlers. The cub was mailed in the state of Jalisco to an address in the state of Queretaro. Despite being medicated, the cub was found in good health.

I wish drug lords would stick to pit bulls instead of endangered animals.

Apparently when you mail a package at the Mexican post office they don’t ask you if it contains anything flammable, toxic, explosive or carnivorous.

File 404:

“The requested document does not exist on this server”.

But the question is, NOW where does the baby tiger go? Also, does the word, ‘tiger’ get capitalized, or is it like ‘cat’?

I don’t know where it is going but they carted it away in a Ford Peekup Truck.

El linko no funciona. Looks like channel 15 took the video down.

It's a one hour plane ride from Guadalajara to Santiago Querétaro.
