About the Book

Author Richard Marshall Gaines takes reluctant readers through a series of action-packed, real-life tiger attacks on humans. In stories ranging from the well-known on-stage attack of Roy Horn (of Siegfried and Roy fame) to attacks on picnickers in Nepal, readers will discover what triggers these animals to attack people. Other information about tigers' physical characteristics and behavior, people who keep tigers as pets, and ways to avoid tiger attacks are featured in the text as well as in sidebars and fact boxes.

Review :
Gaines uses examples of bear and tiger attacks to show that these animals are always dangerous no matter how tame they seem. However, he also makes a case for their preservation and humane treatment. Each book describes the different species of bears or tigers, their habitats, and their potential for extinction, using narrative text and fact boxes on topics such as "A Bear's Senses" and "Tiger Preserves." Both sources have color photographs and diagrams, including anatomical drawings. Bear provides a full page of suggestions on how to avoid an assault, and another full page on what to do if it happens. A short chapter in Tiger discusses similar information, but since these creatures do not live in the wild in North America, there isn't as much advice. While the subject matter is graphic, there are no pictures of attacks or of victims. However, the photography, showing animals in natural habitats and in zoos, leaves no doubt that they are dangerous. These books could be used for reports but are also useful for general awareness., School Library Journal July 2007
