The astrologer's prediction about the death of the Tiger King came to be true. Do you agree with this statement? |

Answer» The astrologer has predicted that no harm would come to the Tiger King till he killed ninety-nine tigers. He had to be worried of the hundredth tiger. This statement of the astrologer forced the king to go on a killing spree. Tiger killing was banned in the state and the king even married in a bid to kill the hundredth tiger. However, in spite of all his efforts to avert the danger, the Tiger King was killed by the hundredth tiger, which was a crude wooden toy bought for the prince. The wooden tiger killed the king merely by a sliver of wood that pierced his right hand. The wound developed an infection and soon it spread all over the arm. The best surgeons failed to save the King and thus the astrologer's prediction about the death of the Tiger King proved the correct. |
