Before you respond to this post saying one is a wild animal vs the other 2 are just mutts and livestock. Stop it. No one is asking for Mike to be paraded around on a leash. He IS a wild animal - hence he has a cage.
I still don't understand how this post appears every season. Mike is a tiger, an endangered species, and deserves to be treated respectfully. More so than a damn steer or a dog you can leash and walk anywhere.
Years ago, people either didn't care or didn't understand the enormous stress an animal goes through when its confined to a small cage and then paraded around 100k screaming/shouting fans.
Just enjoy the beautiful tiger in its habitat before the game and be thankful LSU has such a cool mascot. Literally no one with an IQ above room temperature wants Mike caged and strutted around a stadium

How many years ago? Because 8 years ago a guy who knows a helluva lot more about tigers than you or me was quoted in the USA Today as saying it was "not a stressful experience" for Mike.
