DEBUT | 1994 |
Jared the Tiger appeared in episode 116 of The Animal Show. Stinky wanted Jared to show him how to be ferocious, but before that Jared wanted to show Stinky how tough tigers are. When Jared also mentions that tigers are an endangered species, Stinky quickly declares that he is on the tigers’ side, as he doesn’t want to see tigers vanish.
The same puppet was reused as Sasha the Siberian Tiger in episode 301.
It was recycled and reworked as Mr. Tiger in Elmo's World: Cats, where its realistic eyes were replaced with cartoon eyes.
