Maybe the story is older than you think.

African Tiger
African Tiger Although conventional wisdom has it that there never have been tigers in Africa, there is evidence from fossils that the sabre-tooth species was found in many parts of the continent until about a million years ago. The reason for their disappearance is unclear, but palaeontologists say it was probably caused by dramatic climatic changes opening up the savannahs.

Or Siberian. No sun up there though, no black faces so I guess you are right, India.

"I recall that they got the tiger running around a pole, faster and faster... until it melted into tiger butter!"

Right. No tigers in Africa, they are Asian.

There's very little that Taro gets right. Very sad.
