The tiger @ R has a rope on the collar, which summons the argument about collar-and-chain training over free-breaking. The trainer had his reasons for this collar, but should this guy launch an attack, only sheer luck would drag him back in the tunnel. First, a collar can be slipped off too easily. Second, if he launched an attack and found himself fighting a neck restraint, the attack can become an uncontrollable frenzy. Electing to use a collar at any time on big cats is dicey. My mentors said of the collar, you pays your money, you takes your chances.
