Imagine walking down a generations-old road.  A rustle off to the side makes you snap to attention, and you hold your breath as a tiger crosses your path.  Her ancestors have used this same road for as many generations as yours. In some parts of the world, people share their environment with tigers just as we share ours with coyotes or hawks.  In this poster exhibit, explore the world of the tiger.
