Ambush Hunter Raining, periodic glimpses of eyes glinting, stripes disclosing a tiger prowling through the forest: peering, listening, smelling, drooling, stalking, circling, pausing. Thunder, lightning revealing the tiger slinking in the tall grass; crouching, recoiling, springing; exposing the big cat running, prey seeing, panicking, fleeing. Panoramic vision flashing, tiger leaping, clawing, biting; animal stumbling, tumbling, asphyxiating, dying; tiger tearing, licking, eating.
