A photo staged by Dr. Briggs of a dead, man-killing tiger they had hunted down. He said that the natives in the northern of Siam were terrified of tigers. People lived in tightly clustered villages and at times kept a fire burning all night to ward off tiger visits. The men would work their rice fields only in the daytime.
