So, he didn't resist the temptation hey? Is that the point? Not that he'll
get another chance to succumb to the temptation to crap on a tiger. Was the
tiger angry or merely hungry (avoid anthropomorphism). Is this a previously
documented perversion? Is this offensive to some list members? Goodness -
the possibilities are endless!
