Houston investigators said exotic animal traffickers are likely moving a suddenly famous tiger around from person to person to conceal its exact location. A Houston Police Department commander speculated the Bengal tiger, named India, is believed to still be in the city and has been handed off around a dozen times since he was first spotted.
The passing around of the endangered cat from locations is said to be a common practice among animal traffickers. Police also believe a local crime circuit is in possession of India.
