TYLER, Texas (KETK) – Bengali, the oldest living tiger in the world, has supposedly been dead since May 9, according to document’s released Thursday in a lawsuit against Tiger Creek Sanctuary.
Tiger Creek Sanctuary sued for allegedly violating Endangered Species Act Bengali’s death was announced by Tiger Creek in response to an emergency motion for preservation of evidence that the Animal Legal Defense Fund made in its on going lawsuit against Tiger Creek.
“The Animal Legal Defense Fund did not receive any notice of either Jasmine or Bengali dying — two tigers who endured the harsh conditions at Tiger Creek — despite their treatment and health being central to the claims in our case. Nor did we have an opportunity to perform a necropsy to evaluate those conditions and why they died — necropsies often tell crucial stories about the deceased animals’ lives.”

He’s pining for the fjords.
26, in case anyone’s wondering. Lawsuit seems like a stretch.
Dead? I didn’t even know he was sick!
This is akin to suing a home for the elderly because a resident died at the tender age of 150.
The lawsuit may be a stretch, but it is possible that Tiger Creek may have inadvertly provided the plaintiff ammo by not providing timely disclosure. A Texas lawyer would have a better sense of whether this is true.
I shouldn’t be laughing, but it is worth noting that Covid-19 is suspected. Bengali refused his fourth booster shot, with tragic results.
The lawsuit is by a bunch of “animal rights” kooks who do not actually give a d*** about the animals. Tiger creek has been around for a very long time, and I have never heard of any real problems with them. The fact that the tiger lived to be 27 years old says the care they provide is not too bad.
“harsh conditions”
So harsh the Tigers only lived to be the world’s oldest. Oh the horror!
Well, that explains the funky smell
Sick? I didn’t even know he was alive.
And the world’s oldest Democrat voter has been dead for at least 100 years.
And, of course, was he vaxxed? :>)
You beat me to the punch!
He’s just pining for the fjords....
Adide, I wonder how many Americans who are not Monty Python fans can spells fjords?
You do know the difference between a Fjord and a Fnord, right?
I was bjorn in 65 and attended public schools so it is likely I can’t see that word.
