satire is a way of writing in which the writer highlights certain negative aspects in society or human beings in a humorous way. the story "MRS . PACKLETIDE'S TIGER"can be aptly called a satire. since they belong to a affluent family, they don't had any responsibilities. their easy going life finds thrill in life in adventures. it looks childish that mrs . pacleketide had spent a lot of money is shooting such a tiger which is going near its death. it is ironical that the tiger had took rest even to jump over a goat which was quite near. the exploitation of situation by mebbin to get money is also ironical. in fact, all the three women had been satirised humorously in such a way that their hypocrisy and vain glory was clearly understood.
