The following “fact” isn’t mine…it was emailed to me awhile ago and I love it.
In the wild, it is believed that tigers subsist primarily on honey, pressed flowers, and rainwater which is absorbed through their gills. (Aside: it is a common belief that tigers do not have gills, but the reality is that they are just hidden beneath a thick layer of fur and therefore invisible to the casual observer. This is why tigers like water.)
Over the last 50 years, however, negative media stereotypes of tigers as vicious maneaters have altered the tiger’s traditionally peaceful grazing patterns. Now young tigers, desensitized by repeated imagery of killing and acts of carnivorism, have become increasingly affected by a television-induced bloodlust. This is exacerbated by the young tiger’s desire to appear “cool” and to distance himself or herself from his or her parents. Only time will tell if the trend will continue, but if you are a slow, pudgy child in India I would recommend hanging out with slower, pudgier children in India.
