      That is true for polar bears too. Or you can take off your clothes and throw it towards the polar bear and it'll stop and smell it, but then you'll freeze to death since you usually encounter polar bears in very cold climates. Freezing to death may be preferable to being eaten alive though.

    I love how the Tigers act like tigers, yet at the same time like young boys. Stripe especially was like, 'Cmon Dad, help me out here! I can't swim!' And when he slipped in and his 'dad' caught him and gave him reassurance was just perfect. They are being brought up in the right way for human tiger interaction! They aren't being mistreated, nor are they being treated like humans, as many people do!
