Key Moments in 'Mrs. Packletide's Tiger' : 1) Mrs. Packletide’s Desire to Hunt a Tiger: Mrs. Packletide decides to shoot a tiger to outdo her social rival, Loona Bimberton, who recently gained attention for flying in an airplane piloted by an Algerian aviator. 2) Arrangements for the Tiger Hunt: Mrs. Packletide hires villagers to organize a tiger hunt. The villagers, motivated by the promised reward, ensure the presence of a weak and harmless tiger, which frequently visits the area. 3) Elaborate Preparations: The villagers bait the tiger by tying a goat as prey and keep constant watch to guarantee its appearance. Mrs. Packletide sets up for the hunt with her paid companion, Miss Mebbin. 4) The Climax of the Hunt: When the moment arrives, Mrs. Packletide fires her shot. However, instead of killing the tiger, the bullet hits the goat, and the tiger dies of a heart attack caused by the loud noise of the gun. 5) Miss Mebbin’s Discovery and Opportunism: Miss Mebbin, who observes everything, realizes the tiger wasn't actually killed by Mrs. Packletide’s bullet. She subtly blackmails Mrs. Packletide by threatening to reveal the truth. 6) The Outcome of the Blackmail: To buy Miss Mebbin’s silence, Mrs. Packletide pays for a cottage that Miss Mebbin had been desiring for a long time. 7) Irony and Satirical Conclusion: Mrs. Packletide never attempts another tiger hunt, and Loona Bimberton receives a tiger claw brooch as a gift. The story ends on a humorous and ironic note, highlighting the absurdity of Mrs. Packletide’s vanity and the opportunism of Miss Mebbin. These key moments illustrate the story’s satirical tone, its commentary on human vanity, and the humorous consequences of superficial ambitions.
