Hi. I can't find any information about what to do in the event of a tiger
attack. With bears I've heard you can punch them in the nose and they'll run
away because its a sensation they're not really familiar with, and they have
sensitive noses. With my house cat I've noticed its best to stay still or she
will dig her claws in harder. Are cats, and tigers, sensitive to certain
sounds maybe? Fighting back and playing dead both seem like an equally bad
way of dealing with a tiger attack.
I saw a tiger charge at the camera, on TV, and the tiger doesn't really give
us much time to think about what to do. So I'm thinking it's best to have a
plan in advance :-)

Not much help, but so far it's all I've found, very intriguing topic,
by the way ...

Frank kept on talking about tigers, saying that a tiger's terrific
strength can knock a victim unconscious with the first attack. And he
stressed that very seldom those who are attacked escape with their
lives. Then he added with a wry smile, "let alone being able to relate
details of the event afterwards."
