News you can use

Apparently, the correct way to defend yourself against crocodiles is to stick your thumb in its eye, while for tigers the correct procedure is to use a wooden soup ladle to apply a sound beating about the head and shoulders.

Personally, I prefer to employ solutions that involve large bullets discharged at a very high rate of fire.

  1. I'd recall the best remedy against tigers is a mask with a face painted on, attached to the backside of your head.

    A tiger always attacks from behind - it relies on surprise instead of winning a fair fight. When it sees someone with a face on its back, it hesitates from attacking and leaves him alone.

    Doesn't work with crocs, though.
