Why is there an eagle and a tiger for a mascot? Can they not decide?

They have an eagle named Tiger. Their current eagle is Tiger IV or something like that. No, I am not making this up
Aubie is the name of their human dressed up in a male Tiger costume. They also added another mascot, a human dresed in a female Tiger costume, and gave "her" a name as well. I'm not sure if "she" is still around.

We used to have a female inflatable tiger mascot named ellashue (sic?)
I think she lasted one year
I just think it's funny that the female mascot was inflatable

War Eagle I, has the most colorful story of all of the "War Eagles". War Eagle I's story dates back to the Civil War. According to the legend, a soldier from Alabama was the sole Confederate survivor of a bloody battle. Stumbling across the battlefield, he came across a wounded young eagle. The bird was named Anvre, and was cared for and nursed back to health by the soldier. Several years later the soldier, a former Auburn student, returned to college as a faculty member, bringing the bird with him. For years both were a familiar sight on campus and at events. On the day of Auburn's first football game in 1892 against the University of Georgia, the aged eagle broke away from his master during the game and began to circle the field, exciting the fans. But at the end of the game, with Auburn victorious, the eagle fell to the ground and died.
That is form wikipedia. If it is true, it's roots, like your mascots roots being the tiger, spring from the civil war.

What if the bird decides never to come down?

I forgot about that
I'm sure he'd bounce her around like his little blue rubber ball in his habitat
