Merger Discussion
[edit]Request received to merge articles: Tiger of Mundachipallam and Tiger of Segur into Tiger attack; dated November 2015. Rationale: Merge three articles on man-eater animals. All three articles rely on a single source - a book by the hunter Kenneth Anderson who killed the animals himself. These have no dates and have possible WP:Copyvio problems.

Maneating Tiger or Lion.
[edit]Why is it, that it is alleged that a man eating tiger or lion will never furthermore want anything else?
Well, that answer is quite simple.
Human meat is saturated with fructoses (slightly acidic), that immediately act onto the neuronal system of a predator. You could state that the predator becomes immediately addicted to quick neuronal energy, and the loss of this, a depressive depletion cycle.
It is possible to cure a man eating predator, but, you have to treath them for addiction and addiction withdrawal symptoms.
A human example (Tropical sailing):
For tropical sailing championships, it is indispensable the individual take up lots of water against dehydration (predators are usually dehydrated), and at that stage a slightly acid based liquid (orange juice or similar), gives an immediate neuronal rush that is fealable.
- ) So, the recommendation for all regions with some man eating predator problems.
Don't kill it, treat it for addiction and addiction withdrawal, or do what the ancients did, keep it addicted for gladiator games.
Mayhaps some interested veterinarian will request a nice 3 to 7 year package, to follow up on 'addiction and addiction withdrawal of man eating predators'. I recommend the placements be made in the Safari parks of Africa, 5 groups, an average of 45k/ individual, and 385k for equipment per annum. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.44.92.216 (talk) 14:34, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
Factual error corrected
[edit]Corrected a factual error re: the 2009 tiger attack in Calgary; the man did not suffer life-threatening injuries. 136.159.160.122 (talk) 19:07, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
Tigers rumbling humans attaching masks to the backs of their heads?
[edit]The Measures to prevent tiger attacks section describes a population of villagers attaching masks to the backs of their heads to confuse tigers, and the tigers subsequently uncovering the ruse and resuming attacks. This is obviously quite a striking claim. I have reworded this new section so it is no longer phrased in a way which imbues the tigers with human-like intelligence, but I think further investigation on this is warranted. Sadly, the recent issues with the Internet Archive are preventing me from more thoroughly vetting (pardon the pun) the truth of this claim. We are unlikely to find another source corroborating this as it is based on the researcher of one naturalist, so perhaps pairing the section down would be the ideal solution.
