There's better tiger hunt pictures here. Chapparal is usually tough brushy undergrowth, sometimes described as too short to go under and too tall to climb over. But if you are tiger-height, and also tiger-strong, it's just right.
Dude, six-inch pawprints, in the playground. So cool.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Until it eats your head.
It's like those fuckos who refuse to spay and neuter so that their kids can witness the miracle of birth.
I worked with a woman who ran a shelter who was overwhelmed during kitten season and had to recommend euthanasia to just such a person. She told her, "Now your kids can witness the miracle of death, and learn from your irresponsibility."

The decision to kill rather than tranq the tiger was probably 65% logistical. After it was down, F&G would have to figure out what to do with it. LA Zoo probably wouldn't take it (for a dozen reasons - mostly disease related). Don't know if the Wildlife Way Station is still around or if it has room (when last I heard the F&G had a tenuous relationship with them) and if it was an older animal, tranq and transport has bigger implications getting the doseage correct and cage control. (/useless wildlife management degree) I'm still bummed they did it though.

Dawn speaks for me. I get why they did it, but it's still sad.
Oh look, BM on my TV. And HE is WET!

Hey Dawn! That's awesome that you have a wildlife management degree - I'm usually just talking out my ass about such matters!
