Tiger Son

TIGER SON

What is the story about?

The story is about when a elderly widow has only one son and he is a tiger hunter like his father and his grandfather. But one day there was a snowstorm and her son was separated from the group of hunters and ended up being food to a hungry tigress . After her son died he was her only support . So instead the hunters  had to share profits . The hunters didn’t take the agreement well because they had to feed some of their own old and young. So after they killed the tigress that killed her son , they selfishly didn’t share the profits and gave in a tigress cub . She decided to keep the cub instead of killing it . She treated it like it was her own son . But when the hunters heard she was keeping a cub they got their spears ready and their knife but the old lady defended the cub . The hunters knew that they couldn’t kill the cub without the magistrate’s permission . The magistrate agreed with the elderly widow and warned all hunters not kill the tiger and put a copper pendant around his neck that says Fu Chee , it means tiger son . The elderly widow let the tiger have a cave nearby her house . Fu Chee visited her most of the time and gave her gifts like a dead deer , or a large branch to put in the fire to keep her warm. When Chen Ma died the hunters notice that the tiger guarded the grave nightly so they left the tiger in peace but one day the tiger disappeared .

What’s the Problem?

The problem in the story is when the hunters didn’t want to share profits so they gave a baby tiger but she was too old to kill the tiger so she kept it as her pet but when the hunter’s heard that she was keeping a cub they got their spears and knives ready  .

How can I resolve this ?

The magistrate said that one day the tiger will come against the old lady and kill her but the old lady didn’t agree to this because she treated the tiger differently than any other animal . So the magistrate gave an adoption letter to adopt the tiger .
