Hati, a fine representative of the endangered Malayan tigers hosted at Zoo Miami, got major dental surgery at the zoo’s state-of-art clinic yesterday.

Half a dozen doctors and dentists performed the two-hour surgery, which should take care of 7-year-old male’s toothache. The dicey part was the anesthesia, performed by Dr. Chris Miller (above).
