Male Tiger Loses Battle In Zoo Cell Sept. 12, Two tigresses will live out their time at Cincinati zoo in spinsterhood after mauling to death their male cagemate in a savage battle Monday. The zoo veterinarian, Dr. B. TV.

Bernard, said the jungle cats "tend to be monogamous." "If we put another male in there now, the tigresses would annihilate him," he said. Unknown Cause Zoo officials said there was no way of knowing what caused the! fight or how it started. 1 But it turned the African veldt section into a bedlam of jungle noises, with the wails of other animals joining the battle of India and Sonya. the six-year-old females, and Rajah, the five-year- old male. Keepers said the attack on Ra- iah was apparently a surprise, with one female going for his throat and the other attacking his hindquarters.

Tried Drowning Zoo officials didn't Isarn of the fight until someone dashed into the main office saying "two tigers! arc trying to drown another one." When they reached the out-1 door tiger grotto, Rajah was lying in a moat and the two females were snarling menacingly at the edge of the water. The big tiger died shortly. The three had been together since they were kittens and never I had trouble with each other fore, even at feeding time.
