Tiger Tug: Tug of War with a Tiger

Think you're stronger than a tiger? Test your strength by playing a tug of war with a full-grown tiger at the Busch Gardens: Link


I'm with the "great idea" crowd. The tiger gets some play/physical activity, and the crowd gets a lesson in why it's not a good idea to stick your hand in the damn cage "to pet the big, giant kitty."

On the one hand, it's not exactly typical tiger stimuli. On the other, the tiger does seem to get a kick out of it. It is better than how animals are warehoused in "enclosures" and each person makes the interaction slightly different, so it's not boring. As long as it is the tiger's choice, I think I like it.
