From Times Wire Reports
The search for a Bengal tiger on the loose at the U.S. Army’s Fort Polk in western Louisiana has been halted because no one can find the cat, officials said.
The search involved 100 soldiers, trackers and trappers. There have been 14 sightings of the tiger but none by searchers. The cat is thought to have escaped from a private owner or been released intentionally.
