Estimators report there are more tigers living in private captivity in the United States, than there are roaming around the world. In the film, The Tiger Next Door, longtime animal lover Dennis Hill is faced with getting rid of most, if not all of his animals. Before Dennis Hill owned exotic animals, he was a very wealthy construction worker until he let the rich lifestyle get the best of him, and lost most of his money through drugs, reckless motorcycle driving, and a rough divorce. After Hill was sentenced to six month house arrest, he found his true passion to be owning and breeding tigers.

On page 14 it states that whatever it was that came through the door had to be very big and very imperious. Another hint on page 15, is that maybe the young man had made it where when the tiger came through instead of of the woman. “She knew in which of the two rooms that lay behind those doors stood the cage of the big and impervious tiger.” Something else that makes me think that it was the tiger was that they gave so many hints about it
