our ancient ancestors who lived in East Africa between 2.4 million-1.4 million years ago survived mainly on a diet of tiger nuts.

Those dudes were pretty brave!

Tiger nuts are edible grass bulbs still eaten in parts of the world today.

Oh, never mind.

If you are going to live by eating tiger nuts, you are going to have to really know how to fight.

Yeah, it’s kind of a lose-lose proposition. If you fail, you’re dead; if you succeed the tiger becomes a Democrat.

I’m amazed the tiger gets that much mileage from them, if that’s the case!

It’s no wonder tigers are endangered.

You need to be a tough dude to go rip the nuts off of a tiger.
