Next in my continuing educational series about Things That Want to Eat You (see my earlier post about Komodo dragons), I present: tigers.

An incredibly lucky and dogged Indian (Does that count as Asia? What the hell, they’re connected) man has survived not only an attack by a man-eating tiger, but also the 10-hour journey to Calcutta to have his tiger-wounds treated at a hospital.
On the bright side, he is now the coolest man in all of India.
As Mr Halder fought the tiger he remembered that his father, Gour, had been killed in a similar attack.
He remembered? Uh, like he would ever forget THAT. Seriously.
