WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- A woman who offered to use her 5-month-old pig as bait to lure the tiger that escaped from a Loxahatchee home this week will be cited for animal cruelty, according to animal control officers.

Linda Meredith, of Loxahatchee, put the pig in the trunk of her car and drove to the neighborhood where officials were searching for the tiger shortly after she heard of its escape.

Meredith asked officers to grab the hind legs of the pig, named Baby, or twist its ears so it would squeal and attract the tiger. The officers declined her offer.

Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control Director Dianne Sauve said Meredith will be cited for transporting the pig in her trunk.

2. What an evil cow. I hope she burns.

I can't stand people that treat animals badly.

3. The film of her trying to take it out of the trunk of her car......

was on the standard news loop of that story and I never heard what it had to do with (no voice over to explain). Now I see. Yes she was driving around with it in the trunk of her car too.

Good- bust her.
