Bad daddy!

What a resourceful little kid!

Because he has read Calvin and Hobbes, and knows that little kid + tiger = bad news.

It could have been worse. There could have been a tiger in it.

That’s one of those moments where it dawns on you that you have a spouse who’s AWFUL, not just disinterested and otherwise occupied.

Suddenly, it dawned on Bert that he was merely a sperm donor. :P

Good thing the mower went in first. Deep hole for a small kid. H-m-m-m- Had help?

He’s been reading Calvin and Hobbes!

When’s the last time you saw a tiger roaming around the neighborhood?

Hope there aren’t any bamboo spikes at the bottom of that trap.

Calvin used a rope, not a pit.

Wanted to catch a tiger to play with like Calvin.

I’m guessing the kid omitted the sharpened bamboo sticks at the bottom…

The punji stakes were a nice touch.

He didn’t spoil it, he was only testing it for the kid.

Rule #1 regarding Tiger Traps: Don’t check for them by jumping on them.

Disney Swiss Family Robinson. First movie I remember going to.

Maybe he IS a tiger in those tight fitting jeans.

Did he rig it with a tuna sandwich?

“Now he’ll NEVER catch a tiger!!!”

For the grammar police, the line is “Why did you did you spoil his tiger trap?”.
