Tigers of Obsession
- The Kroger Zoo was looking for ways to attract their giant cats to the location of their cameras.
- They experimented with a variety of perfumes and colognes.
- After testing 25 fragrances, they found CK Obsession for men was the best.
- While many scents held the animals for only seconds or a few minutes, Obsession held them for at least 11 minutes.
- Now, wildlife specialists use the fragrance to attract Jaguars in the jungle.
- They spray it on tree trunks and the ground, and the cats will rub up against the tree and roll all over the ground.
- This setup is called a camera trap.
- They bait the area with the scent in order to lure the animals to the cameras.
- The scent was also used to try and catch a wild man-eating tiger in India.
