Not looking good. Recent tests reveal the cancer has spread and Dr. Baker estimates Mike may only have another month or two to live. A search for Mike VII is underway.

Cancer sucks ass. Mike has had a great life as the living icon of LSU sports tho. Now we get to endure the bullshit from PETA as they search for a new tiger.

Ignore them. They won't prevent us from getting a Mike VII.

PETA sux

Has this tiger ever been in the stadium, or is that never happening again?

Yes, this tiger has been inside the stadium in previous years.

Couple times, but really not his thing to get in the trailer.

Sad to lose him in such a way and kinda weird with all this change going on. There are some local folks out there that have developed personal relationships with him that will be hurt the most.

With as many Tigers out there needing rescue, we got a pretty good home for them. PETA be damned

Sad to hear, I love that Tiger!

I like the fact that everything was on his terms as to going in the stadium!

This news makes me so sad. I lost my yellow lab to that infernal cancer back in August, and hearing that Mike VI is covered with it is another punch to the gut.

Heard on the radio that tumors are blocking his sinuses and tear ducts. Can't imagine the misery of not being able to breathe through your nose and chronic dry, probably ichy eyes. He might need to be put out of his misery sooner rather than later.
