I think I remeber from a few weeks ago, Doc posted some bears in the hot tub.   I think  Spa Doc sells "Bear B Gone".  I wonder if that would work?

Everytime someone purchases a Tiger River Spa, the management of Watkins Mfg. donates money to the World Wildlife Fund to help preserve tiger species.  Please do your part to help these beautiful creatures and the tigers, too.

Yeah, it's all cute and cuddly untill one goes all Sigfried on it's "owner". 700# animal, razor sharp claws, 1200 psi biting force, yeah, Africa or the zoo, preferably Africa. Unless they are those other kind and they should be left in Asia.

I donate to WWF every year, but without HS as the middle man. Buying a Tiger River tub each year is a little beyond my means ;D

I suspect you are refering primarily to those "other kind" as tigers are not found in Africa in the wild and never have been. Their range is Asia and the Indian sub continent as well as Indonesia, primarily the island of Sumatra as the Bali and Javan tiger is believed extinct now.

Once they ranged as far west as Turkey but now are generally not found farther west than India.

Or, preferably, mounted  in a den somewhere!

As a vet student, I got to help with retired performance and rescued tigers a bit- they were heavily sedated by the time were were doing anything with them, but it is awesome, in the truest sense of the word, to hold your hand with fingers extended, and have it barely cover part of a paw.
