Tiger Heart of Forest Park

Along the edge of Forest Park there's a tiger eating men alive. Alas, she often strikes near the import ales. That lump, the one a fella feels in his throat, that's his swollen heart cryin' for help.

Director Statement

As a director whiling away a day or two at Frozen Angels Republic of Monogram Pictures, makin' pichas, thinking about pichas, one day I became aware of the dangers of free-ranging tigers & tigresses out and about, makin' lunches of broken hearts, and felt it was imperative to make this picha on the dangers of toothy traps, or something like that.
