In episode 11, Jen & Nilo talk tigers! They cover a number of attacks in India, including the story of the notorious Champawat tigress, and then Jen does a deep dive into a mystical tale of feline vengeance against a poacher from Siberia. They finish up by reviewing an array of movies about middle-aged white men using tigers to behave badly – Roar, Burning Bright, and Black Zoo – with a brief detour through the ridiculous Jurassic Park ripoff, Sabretooth.
