Should you look a tiger in the eyes?
If you ever encounter a tiger in the wild (or if you do one in your dreams :-)), look in the eyes and slowly back far, far away while keeping eye contact with him and he is less likely to kill you. Tigers prefer to hunt by ambush, so by looking a tiger in the eyes you are showing him you know he is there.
Should you look a wolf in the eyes?
Wolves are also “coursing predators,” meaning they like to take their prey on the run. Don’t try to stare the wolves down. They regard eye contact as a challenge. Don’t turn your back on the wolves since they’ll be incited to try and flank you.
What should you do if a tiger attacks you?
Try to remain calm and back away slowly. In the event that a tiger is tracking you or has begun to snarl at you and seems ready to attack, try to stay calm. Do not look the tiger in the eye, but do turn towards the tiger. Back away slowly while fighting the urge to turn your back and run.
Do tiger sharks like to be petted?

Is it safe to swim with tiger sharks?
No, STOP Swimming. For our typical shark dives such as classic Tiger Beach, there’s no need to swim around. It stirs up sand ruining visibility, confuses the sharks with commotion, divides everyone’s attention, and wastes energy. Stay solid on the bottom and enjoy the show, that simple.
