So, yesterday came across the following footage of tigers chasing a drone. Pretty amazing stuff -- not least because I've never seen so many tigers at one time sharing the same space before. I thought they were solitary predators (unlike lions, who live in prides). Clearly they can cope with living with other tigers just fine.

Unfortunatly, the story behind this footage is very sad. They aren't wild tigers, but tigers are breed in farms in China to be slaughtered and their bodies sold for medecine or luxury :

Sorry to hear it, Druss. Thanks for the info, though; it's better to know than not know about such things.
