One of its common traits is that it can fly, fit into small spaces, and be invisible.

In the future, however, students hope to fully harness the power of these amazing creatures.

    3: The first ever sighting of this mystical creature was made on May 1st 2006, by professional beast specialists Ray McCourt, Robert Wallum, Chris Thaureaux, and Anthony Iorio. The resident expert on mystical creatures was on the scene as well, named Adrian Jordan. As soon as he saw the unknown figure inside the treeline next to the Bergen Catholic football field, he immediatley identified it as the Mandarin Tiger. The Mandarin Tiger was first spotted at Bergen Catholic High School in Room 22 outside the window and later on the ceiling. This sighting tragically caused Mrs. Garsia, the math teacher, to close the blinds. Though the tiger was out of sight, Neil Pedersen asserted that he could still see it.

    4: Currently, the only person to survive a Mandarin Tiger attack was Mrs. Garsia, an allegedly pretty good teacher in an allegedly pretty good school. Supposedly she was assisted by the use of a Master Ball, but that theory is currently under debate. One of these tigers was snatched by an anonymous faculty member before three valiant warriors were able to save it. These tigers are now caged and undergoing examination at Bergen Catholic High School. These specimens may or may not be rehabilitated into the wild. On May 5, 2006, some students who were seen shouting "There's a tiger outside! It's a Mandarin Tiger!!!" were prosecuted under false accusations of immaturity. Little did the prosecutors know, there actually was a Mandarin Tiger. On Monday, May 8, 2006, the four brave men recieved detentions, and valiantly served and represented their class in this disciplinary action.
