Hunting in the Jungle
Lord Fulabunk was recounting one of his many hunting expeditions to a group of colleagues. 'I was deep in a jungle, in the Congo. The air was thick and musky. Sweat dripped from my brow and my fellow hunters had already decided to give up and return to camp, but I was determined to capture our prey. Suddenly, I heard a snap of a twig from behind me. As I reeled around, I shot a huge tiger dead as it leapt to devour me! And that is how I came upon this fine trophy you see hanging on my wall here.'
'Nonsense!', cried Baron Knowital, 'Your story is nothing but a fabrication!'
How did Baron Knowital know that Lord Fulabunk's tale was false?

actually, not all tigers are from India, but I agree that there are no tigers in the Congo.
Fairly easy, but I found your character names very amusing.
way too easy but fun
Yeah, where the heck do people come up w/ such weird names But yes, these ones where someone is being called a liar for one reason or another are a bit too easy. Even if you don't know the facts, you can assume that tigars don't live where he claims he shot one.
hey "TELL" I like your name, it took me a second but like you, I'm a bit slow.
I had fun with this one, good job.

No, there are no Tigers in Africa. I think, but am not sure, that there once were, but they went extinct?

i thought the giveaway was the snapping branch. If there is a lot of humidity and dead branch won't snap!
