A tiger survivor

A golf course, cricket grounds, and streets cleared and evacuated, armed police with a helicopter on the scene, zoo wranglers with tranquilizer darts! A white tiger (a beast escaped!!) had been spotted in a field!

It was a mighty cool cat who didn't even register on the thermal-imaging cameras!! He showed no fear of the helicopters, either! A blast of helicopter wind blew the tiger over onto his back, and exposed the beast as a plushie.

Here's the story.

Well, it was an honest mistake. Hampshire is well known to be rife with tigers.

Yeah, and somebody would have shot the hell out of the poor thing and asked questions later - even a stuffed version.

Um, you might want to google the term "plushie." But not at work.
