WHAT DOES A TIGER SEE?



What does a tiger see? That is a question, that one can seek an answer to and maybe find it.

In the deep and lush jungle, there roams an animal who wishes to know what does a tiger see. It follows the predator and watches it habits, noting ear movements and twitches of the whiskers. The flicker of it's eyes follow the eyes of the tiger, about the forest in search for some prey or safety. Does a tiger really look for safety though, being on the top of the food chain, surely it can't fear anything.

However wrong that assumption is, especially since the tiger has one major predator that is even more dangerous than itself. This predator is the human who hunts it not for it's meat but for it's fur. The fur that some one will use not to wear but to adore their home with.

The animal that stalks the tiger is indeed a man, but his purpose is not to kill this magnificent beast but to learn more from it than any sort of text could provide. This human dressed in beige is a researcher with a tiny notebook in the back pocket and a camera around the neck.

Clicks from the camera and scribbles in the notebook indicate that this researcher has been around for awhile, a few weeks, maybe months. So on they creep after the big cat, assured that the creature hasn't seen them.

The tiger for the first time in a few days has headed out to an open space with little trees and a lake. It goes for a swim to cool itself off from the summer heat. Wearing that coat in the summer, it gets hot. The researcher stays in the forest and observes like a spy on a mission. Them out of nowhere the tiger leaps towards the researcher and mauls him in the neck, and goes for the stomach.

So much for thinking that stalking a tiger was a great idea ... for the tiger saw it all.

THE END.
Please leave me some feedback it would be much appreciated.
