  • @Silver seren, Crisco 1492, and Bruxton: Very cool biography! I've had to pull this out of prep because I don't think the hook fact passes muster. The cited Times source says The Ringling publicity machine has dubbed her the "Tiger Whisperer,", which sounds more like this is a marketing/PR term than something in actual wide usage. We could just edit the hook to match, but people tend to complain at errors when we repeat marketing terms uncritically. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 09:06, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
