Quick shot of the tiger
The Darjeeling Limited is a comedy-drama focusing on three brothers who attempt to reconnect while on the titular train in India. In one of several episodes, the boys eventually find their mother at a mission, who confirms rumors of a man-eating tiger in the area. During a long pan of various supporting characters arranged in a tableau on the train, an animatronic tiger appears fleetingly, supplied by Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
Drew Massey (credited as Andrew Massey) puppeteered the tiger.
