I haven't been attacked by many tigers recently; but, I'll keep it mind for the next time.

Tigers are large animals. When they stand up on two legs, they taller than a tall man; that's a little over 6'. Thus you'd probably need something very large that can make a vicious wound. Because tiger would very difficult to hurt it. In ancient Rome, they pit a tiger against a lion and the tiger killed the lion in a few seconds. The Romans were pretty pissed, too. Tigers are build to take down large animals; they're more compactly built; they're shorter legnthwise, but taller at the shoulder. They've been known to even take down juvenile elephants, water buffalo, drag a domestic cows six feet over the wall, and plugged a man down from a very tall tree. [laugh!] that's why the tiger is a simbol of courage and strength in Asia.

Uzi 9mm...........the weapon of choice Unless it's THE tiger, of Winnie the Pooh fame, then I would imagine a eye to eye stare would suffice, something like this....

They're bouncy,bouncy,bouncy,bouncy,fun,fun.fun,fun,fun...

Hmmm, I'm remembering what happened to the real Winchester in that scene the "Ghost and the Darkness" (excellent flick I can't recommend enough). Perhaps I'd hide and wait until it dies of old age.
