Question

How was the tiger shooting arranged ? What of a tiger was chosen for the purpose?

Answer 1

The tiger shooting was pre-planned very carefully. Mrs. Packletide announced to give a thousand rupees to those who helped her shoot the tiger. A companion was paid to accompany her and there was a stage constructed to shoot. A week before the shoot, children were posted to guard the forest, women shushed their singing and it was ensured that the tiger was kept alive as it was old.

A very old and weak tiger was chosen for the purpose.

Hope this helps!

The tiger shooting was arranged in neigbouring village. The villagers had seen an old tiger who used to hunt domestic animals on the outskirts of the local jungle. A platform or Machaan was built in a comfortable and conviniently placed tree for Mrs. Packletide and her paid companion Miss Louisa Mebbin. A noisy goat was tethered at the correct distance to attract the tiger.

The tiger chosen for this purpose was weak, diseased tiger who could not hunt wild animals due to old age.
