CONROE, TX -- A Texas police department tried to find an owner after a tiger was found wandering loose in Conroe, about 40 miles north of Houston.
Police got a report just before noon Thursday of the tiger wandering Coral Cove Pass near Longmire and League Line.
Animal control officers were able to locate and capture the animal.
"Her name is Nala. She's very nice. She's a 4 to 5-month-old tiger," said a man who identified himself only as Cody.
Cody saw the news about the tiger found roaming a north Conroe neighborhood and called ABC7 sister station KRTK-TV claiming it is his -- sort of. He said her ownership is up in the air.
"We dropped her off at a friend's and I don't really know how she got out," Cody said.
Authorities asked for assistance in locating the owner. The female tiger has a collar and a leash.
