The Tiger King
Who is the Tiger King? Why does he get that name?
The Maharaja of Pratibandapuram is known as the Tiger King. He may be identified as His Highness Jamedar-General, Khiledar-Major, Sata Vyaghra Samhari, Maharajadhiraja, Visva Bhuvana Samrat, Sir Jilani Jung Jung Bahadur, M.A.D., A.C.T.C., or C.R.C.K. But this name is often shortened to the Tiger King. He had killed about hundred tigers. When he was born, the astrologers predicted that he would be killed by a tiger. The ten day baby prince spoke terrifying words. “Let tigers beware!” When he grew up he took up a vow to kill one hundred tigers and he started killing them. Thus he came to be known as the Tiger King.
