Wonderful Steve. I dont understand though..do they actually hunt for tigers or is it an attempt to scare them away from the park? What is the go?

Hi Salsbells69
Sorry, what I meant was they are on the look-out for tigers! I will change the description to read a bit clearer.
Steve :-)

Thanks for clarifying~! I have seen an email of a tiger attacking a mahout on a similar thing. The tiger came out of the grass and caught him by surpise. You may have seen it or heard about it. It wasnt a nice ending for the mahout unfortunately. Dangerous Gig.
