Sleek, powerful and mysterious, the tiger is revered as a potent symbol of sexuality, ferocity and magic in many cultures around the world, yet the tiger’s strength and beauty has also been its downfall: nearly every part of the tiger has a value to poachers.Vaillant is able to empathise so fully with both human and animal protagonists that it is hard to believe he wasn't there . By using a renewable material like paper in this product, we avoid using fossil or finite materials. In many ways, Inspection Tiger's mandate resembles that of detectives on a narcotics detail, and so does the risk: the money is big, and the players are often desperate and dangerous individuals.
