Tiger Животное в изображении древних художников называемое геральдическим тигром нарисовано условно, как показано на полях. Примечателен тигр, смотрящийся в зеркало (looking into a mirror, см.). Фигура восходит к представлениям, что для чтобы забрать у тигрицы тигрят, нужно поместить зеркало на её пути, чтобы иметь время убежать. Также встречаются тигриные головы и маски (heads и faces).
