“A Tiger Doesn’t Lose Sleep Over the Opinion of Sheep”
I was browsing the web earlier on today and stumbled upon this picture with the quote “A tiger doesn’t lose sleep over the opinion of sheep.” I agree with the saying full on. A tiger simply does not waste any of his energy worrying about his prey because he has better things to do in his time, such as taking a stroll through their territory in the jungle, spending time with their cubs, etc.
