Quote:Police are trying to trace the owner of a life-size toy tiger which sparked a major operation involving armed officers and a force helicopter.
The alert was raised after several members of the public spotted what they believed to be a live white tiger in a field near Hedge End, Southampton, Hampshire.
They'll be banning cuddly toys now!

Wow, cops in the UK are almost as stupid as their American counterparts.

Dammit Rhizomorph, I was thinking of that very same episode of Robot Chicken but you beat me to it. I guess all I have is the tiger scene from Monty Python's Meaning of Life:

I saw this on the news, how bloody retarded. They sent a chopper in as well lmfao.
If only they were as quick to respond when you phone them up about a bunch of yobs outside your house.
