For State Fish and Wildlife Protection Officers Jake and Julie MacDonald, answering those questions is the least of their worries! Partners in life and on the job, the most dangerous thing they usually have to deal with was arresting heavily armed poachers in the middle of nowhere with no backup. But their latest assignment is something out of a horror movie: Stopping a man-eating tiger who is terrorizing a remote village. And, as usual, Jake and Julie are on their own.

And...she sat next to him every day in AP English!
