So apparently, the cops then pulled him over on the highway and asked where he was taking the tiger. He said he was taking it to the zoo, and they let him go. Then the next day, they saw him again with the tiger still in the car. They asked him, "We thought you were taking that tiger to the zoo yesterday?". "I did", he said. "Today I'm taking him to the movies".
Missing kids also solved, anyway i feel like that woman was overdramatic about her statement yes it's a tiger but a human walking with a gun while the tiger walks, true killer instinct if the tiger attacked bit it didn't
Actually that happened to me here in Lima, Ohio. But it was a lion. True story. About a year later the same lion made the news. Thats all I really know of it. You may be able to Google it.....I think I will now....never gave it much thought until now.
I had a neighbor couple who used to drive with their mountain lion laying on the back seat of their car. They said it was usually hilarious when they'd get pulled over by a cop.
lol aggressive manner. That tiger was just walking around like a house cat outside for the first time. If the Tiger was being aggressive some one would have been lunch.
He wasn't being aggressive but it's against the law for you to have a tiger in your house in a neighborhood if you live in the country in the middle of nowhere yeah you can have one but not in a neighborhood when there's kids around
I definitely agree. The tiger was just chilling and walking around. It wasn't even moving that fast just like causally I guess. People love to over react. In just glad the cop didn't shoot the poor tiger.
@@tiffanyk9869 It shouldn't have been outside in a residential neighborhood. It's not the tigers fault, but the owner needs to be sited severely so it never happens again.
@@driftlesshermit severely won't do nothing come on its just like if someone did something wrong and went to jail for a few years and gets out and a month later do the same crime again and get caught and repeat.
Not even close. This happens all the times In Texas. Pretty sure of the half of the worlds population of tigers are in Texas. Not sure if that’s true Florida had a snake and gator problem.
🤦♀️ As a female....I rolled my eyes. You stay calm, don’t act like prey, don’t scream, talk calm, and keep eye contact....it may walk up due to curiosity. But that’s how cats walk lady. You don’t act like prey.....you don’t get treated like prey. Tiger looked scared and confused. Out of its normal “habitat”. I am no big cats trainer, but as a hunter I figured out the laws of nature. Stay calm and firm, and chances of being lunch go way way down. Even in this situation. The Cop should of chilled a little but more. The Tiger seemed curious about his excitement. But glad he did not shoot.
Black mirror episode...more like white mirror episode? If the owner was a black man, the cops will block the whole Street by now and the owner in jail.
Tigers are more aggressive then lions and lions won’t hurt people unless you hurt them. Yeah a tigers dangerous but I feel like respect has a lot to play here but idk
@Organic Iverson sadly not everyone will respect animals but those are the people hurt by them because the thing is if someone’s playing with you and ur a animal you’ll show them to stop but if ur a animal and someone’s respecting you chillin then you have no want to attack
It reminds me of the guy who kept a tiger in his NYC apartment. There was a retirement/assisted living facility across the street, and one of the residence had been telling the staff for months they kept seeing a Tiger in the window. But the staff assumed it was dementia or something, and didn’t believe them. LoL
I remember that episode, I believe the series was called “Fatal Attraction”? Dude straight up raised an entire Tiger from kitten to full adult. It was sad when the authorities found and shot the animal, though. Dude then legally opened up a Big Cat sanctuary somewhere on the Westcoast, if I remember correctly.
I remember that it was in the bronx and your right they keep complaining and not one fool believed it until the tiger was fully grown and there was another story in ny where they were found living in a Hertz rental truck lol
It acts completely docile, shooting that tiger while behaving as it was would be like shooting someones kid that was just looking around the neighborhood out of curiosity but you though was dangerous cause of whatever makes people just assume crap
And not even being watched carefully. What brought me here you ask? I just heard a lion ROAR at 2am I. My small town Oklahoma backyard while I came out so smoke. Now I have a lion living next door 😤
@@josevenancio5008 no sh!t Jose! Fran was just saying that the owner had the tiger since birth that's . People are fascinated owning animals that can kill you! Lions, tigers, bears oh my! Clearly by looking at the neighborhood that guy can afford a tiger.
I love and respect wild animals, but this could have turned deadly. It is also extremely unfair and unnatural to keep a large Carnivore in a Suburban home.
Would you rather it be poached in the wild instead ? Private owned tigers have a far better chance at continuing to remain non extinct because of privateer
@@hartreeder that tiger is only about half as large as it will get and i know from experience that even a tiger of 3 months of age can be extremely difficult to handle as they are extremely powerful with claws and fangs that are threatening,these cats are very independent if they want to go somewhere and they get loose you will have an extremely hard time if not impossible way of getting them back,i had a 3 month old bengal tiger that almost got away from me had a special body harness and it took all my power to restrain it while trying to lift it into the car it was baring huge fangs and claws about an inch long,it was tense
They may just break in to get the tiger!!! 🤣😅🤣😅🤣 what are they worth on the market. I'm sure about the same price as a Rolex 🤣😅🤣😅🤣911 what's your emergency????.......someone stole my cat.....sir try the fire department, may just be resting in a near by tree is all?
This tiger obviously does not see people as a food source this is the calmest cat you ever want to see the tragedy is that is cooped up in somebody's house
@@giulianacr2638 You're really amazing. Like a zoo you mean so you can go view it along with all the other creatures that should be freed..... in their environment.
"Domesticated" or not, they are born preditores and people have lost their lives for not considering the inner most natural instincts of these cats. You don't know what might set them off. Sigfried and Roy are an example of this.
-Tiger harmlessly walks through neighborhood 🐅 Everyone: “OMG WTF I COULDN’T BELIEVE MY EYES.” -Man kisses tiger and drives off with him Everyone: “Understandable, have a nice day.”✌️
lady: "AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR" facts: was outside all night with kids and dogs roaming neighborhood. received a kiss on the head. rode inside a car the next day.
@@MrJamberee he's eight. So I guess you are speaking about yourself. If that Tiger was agressive the deputy may have been able to get off one shot before it was lights out.
"If he hadn't been there I don't know what could have happened"...but I'm willing to jump to conclusions and speculate in an upset manner for your news segment.
YOU ARE A STUPID NOTHING! Imagine YOUR ignorant behind walking through the area, then, all of a sudden MAULED by a TIGER! Imagine your family's "upset manner".....stop showing the WORLD your level of stupidity.
Yeah ummm....Not many people are used to seeing one of the most efficient natural killing machine just roaming their neighborhood. Leave the lady alone if she was shook up it's understandable.
Look, If I saw a Tiger walking my in my neighborhood I'd know right away it was someone's pet and tame, it's not like it's a wild Tiger that just swam across the ocean from its homeland
I don't see how the neighbors didn't know he had a tiger living there. You'd think it would roar once in a while or maybe be seen through a window in passing? Something...
Loo why would it roar? From what I know, tigers growl more than roar. Either way, being cooped up in a house all ur life can make this tiger not roar/growl. I've dogs being kept in a basement and not know how to bark. It's so wierd.
@@dfs20111984 Yeah, so dangerous the owner walked out and lead the tiger back inside, all without the police shooting said dangerous tiger. VERY DANGEROUS /eyeroll
@@ipdjbt your perception of the situation is too dependent on the present outcome. At the end of the day you are dealing with a tiger, which cannot always be controlled, you agree? The situation worked out well in this instance, which I'm glad to see, but are you telling me that this is a situation that can always be predicted? Let's suppose kids were around or just someone who has no idea how to reach around a tiger, can you say that the outcome is always predictable?
Yeah my aunts house is literally in the video with the tiger in front of it and she just found it bizarre. No need to be scared as long as you are in your house
im in the middle.... yeah she overreacted a bit but at the same time shes worried and rightfully so..what if someone grandparents are walking around the block or kids...i personally wouldnt react like that but i don't blame her.
Yeah but the animal did appear to be a bit stressed,probably because it might have been confused..people are lucky it wasn't full grown(well,didn't look like it anyway) it might have gotten alot worse..I don't know what is wrong with some people..if they want a tiger,get a giant plush one to sit on the couch..those things are not pets,sheesh 😕
This is scary. Many years ago I lived in Florida and my neighbor was a performer with Ringling Bros. Circus. He kept 2 tigers & 2 lions in cages in his backyard. Authorities were trying to catch him at home to arrest him & take the animals into custody. I moved out of the area, & don't know if they ever caught him.
There are around 2,000-5,000 tigers in Texas, so there are possibly more tigers in Texas than there are in the wild. I'm honestly surprised this doesn't happen more often.
@@copyright4138 No, I posted a well known fact. You're welcome to google it, realize you're wrong, and then delete your comment (don't just edit it like Anupam has done).
The cop gave that tiger more respect than most black people. Shocking that he didn't shoot an animal that could tear him apart in seconds, but an unarmed black man probably wouldn't have faired so well🤷♀️
Not anymore, unfortunately. Cant return it to the wild, it depends on people to feed it. It will seek out humans and become very hungry, recipe for disaster. Once dumbasses like this domesticate them, they will die in captivity. People think they're cute when they are small, then they grow 25x the size and cost a small fortune to take care of.
@@Floridaman1780_ I agree. Not only that , but a tiger living in captivity would probably get killed by another tiger defending his territory. A tiger released into the wild could spread diseases..
I know for a fact that yes some people don't know what they are doing owning one as a pet, but it is possible. I mean it wasn't that long ago where you could walk the streets of New York with a pet tiger or leopard. If you have the proper training and know what you are doing then you can do it. My grandfather owns a wild animal reserve park and sometimes raises yung tiger cubs and bear cuba and so on. Now living in a neighborhood where the poor tiger doesn't have the space to run and hunt, yes will become a problem. I support the man with enough courage to raise such a beautiful creature, but he should move to a land with huge fences and a few acres of land for the beauty
@@Floridaman1780_ I agree with you. The worst thing to do is to domesticate a wild animal. They are pretty much finished if you release them. They won't even know how to fight or find food anymore cause you turned them into something that they never should have been.
Police cannot just go into a house without a warrant or extenuating circumstances that are a life threading situation. For example if a voice from inside screams for help. Otherwise they need a warrant. I’m betting the owner drove the tiger back out of the city and stayed out of city.
@@leelee7731 it's a crime to own a tiger within city limits so they had well over the probable cause to obtain a warrant or even perform a due cause search on the spot, if it was performed immediately after the man led the tiger into the house
It really depends on where you live at. Owning a pet tiger is considered legal or is unregulated in eight states, all of which have rather lax regulatory laws concerning animal rights in general: North Carolina, Alabama, Delaware, Nevada, Oklahoma, South Carolina, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Of course the big issue about this comes from two reasons, not enough space within city limits usually, males needing 40 miles of territory, females needing just 7 miles. Another being because of an incident in 2011. Still, you shouldn't own a tiger, they should be left in the wild. Not in zoos or in someone house. They're surprisingly cheap as well, $900-$2500
"Aggressive manner" you gotta be kidding me. If that cat was aggressive someone would have been hurt. The fact that it didn't attack the cop, a kid or another pet shows it wasn't aggressive. It was just curious. I swear people are afraid of everything these days.
Poor tiger 😭😭 What’s a tiger doing cooped up in an American home like a little domestic pussycat? It should be in an Asian jungle with other tigers, doing what they do best. Poor thing looks totally confused.😢
It should be, however at this current time being pouched for Chinese medicine or some billionaire is far more likely while roaming freely in any Asian jungle.
@@stephenpmurphy591 I’d rather be in the hood risking death , than be locked up in solitary confinement for my own “safety “. Same applies to animals locked up in zoos and people’s homes.
@@kennygee5958 I'm know, however in India several excellent Tiger preserves exist a massive one name Corbet National park is outstanding. However other countries aren't so protective of living Tigers to much profit in dead one's.
@@marvinsantos18 all cops are either on the same team or the criminal ones should be serving prison time. So, since very few criminal scum pig cop cunts serve prison time. Yes, they all guilty equally. Its not rocket science
-Not a fully grown tiger, teenager. -Tiger was unsure of new environment, but calm -Hangun pointing directly at tiger's head >>still brave, but not balls of steel
Some of y'all are calling this woman a "Karen," saying she is over reacting. No, this is a time to react and her actions were appropriate. This wasn't a Black Man minding his business on a morning jog. It was a TIGER!!! It is good that this story did not end in human or animal bloodshed, but it could have! I'm glad the tiger didn't meet it's end do to a trigger happy cop, but this was a case where a cop had the right to be scared. It's a TIGER!!! That TIGER is not meant to be strolling down a residential neighborhood. TIGERS ARE NOT PETS!!! They are meant live outside of captivity, not like a poodle or in your living room. That man put this animal and his entire neighborhood in danger. What is the justification? There are more TIGERS illegally here in the US than in the wild! It's selfish! That TIGER is not a toy it is a wild animal and is meant to be wild! Some of y'all got life backwards as Hell. The fact that no charges or detainment was made after this is insane. That neighborhood and tiger are in danger. That TIGER shouldn't have to behave like a house pet to satisfy the arrogance of it's captor. That man has this animal chilling on the lawn smack dab in the suburbs. I've seen HOAs and Police go insane for literally nothing, but this gets no marks on the stress Richter scale?! Mmmkay 👀💅🏾
They say everything is bigger in Texas. But I never saw the cat being a threat or in attack mode towards the officer. News adds what ever they want to make the matter worse.
@@plively3736 the cop was sure smart not to shoot because it was not a threat for a second, it could of been bad at any point but that tiger seemed tame
@@sillywillie5076 it's a wild animal and it belongs in a habitat not a residential area. had the cop turned his back or even worse if the tiger was hungry it would have surely attacked. the cop had a lot of restraint, I would've shot that thing on sight.
@@geraldocartier9083 I've seen safari hunter videos shooting at tigers and it did not end well for them... especially with a pistol. Go for it, I'll film it for you. The officer was smart and did not escalate something horribly dangerous- I would have radioed others not to use sirens, too.
Lmao they probably couldn't cause the tiger, cause who could handle it right then and there if they had arrested the owner I also seriously doubt they have a tiger specialist just lying around to pick it up if owner had been arrested? also if you hear at the end the owner put the tiger In a truck and took off he probably never came back in fear his tiger would get taken away. I really doubt the cops had any resources to make the situation any easier
Walking and stalking have a difference. Your gut instincts tell you this when you're confronted with something dangerous. You above obviously cannot tell the difference. The tiger was walking. Stalking is when they walk in a crouch. Don't trust everything you see about animals on TV. They say the wrong things on purpose so that there is hype. For example a tiger walking through the grass, the blades rustling and twigs snapping. The commentator says "the tiger is stalking it's next meal". Really it's just the tiger walking to its favorite drinking spot by a river and goes for a swim with a potential partner. Splashing in the river.
@@zEternalProphetz Have you ever been bit by your pet cat? That little bite if given by a tiger would be a serious situation. When it comes to tigers it is best to be fearful!
That beautiful cat was not being aggressive at all!!! So happy that he didn't shoot it. If the cat was out in the night, where the hell was this guy all of that time while the cat was strolling??? Then all of the sudden he comes out and like don't shoot, what an idiot? Lets escape now with the tiger and drives off. I would like to know his response to that.
@Apathy Guess, even ,,wild '' animals are better at following orders and don't jump on officers to take their weapons , as some ,,civilized '' humans will do . Learn more every day , I guess.
@@justgivemethetruth Actually there is, I know a guy who raised exotic animals (Lions, Tigers, Bears, Camels, Antelope, etc.) and I know how to tell the difference between casual, playful, and aggressive.
@@justgivemethetruth If it is provoked by another's aggression, then yes. Domesticated species of Dogs and cats can react the same way. But again, that's on the aggressor, not the animal reacting to/defending against said aggression.
@Bro NY if you honestly believe that then you're just a victim of propaganda and don't have the critical thinking skills to logically think for yourself.
I hope that Tiger is okay. WTF? I hope this man is NOT keeping it locked up. Thank God that cop had a COOL head and nothing like the Karen on the phone. The poor animal was confused and innocent.
