Sumatran Tiger escaped in Tas WOJ area

Any truth in this?

Oh the irony if it is!

Local farmers have tracked the animal as it continues south down the Meander River towards The Walls of Jerusalem National Park.
A response team is now en route from Anglesea Barracks in Hobart, which consists of specialist troops from The Royal Tasmania Regiment and air support from Tasmania Police.

Zero truth.

Satire website by a couple of "in-between-jobs" sydney journalists.
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

It's a satirical newspaper.

Look at the end of this article from Media Watch

Don't be hard on yourself Dan. If there are so many black panthers in Victoria, a Sumatran tiger in Tassie isn't that much of a stretch :lol: :lol:
