      That Time CIA Used Tiger Droppings as a Covert Tracking Device http://bit.ly/2K1ZQmO  #InternationalTigerDay #GlobalTigerDaypic.twitter.com/SBKWKM1fbZ

      There are only approx 3,900 wild tigers left in the world today. However, during the Vietnam War the Indochinese tiger population was healthy & thriving, providing us a creative way to covertly track movement of North Vietnamese & Viet Cong. #GlobalTigerDay

      During the war, the US needed to monitor opposition location & movement. CIA scientists invented a seismic intruder detection device: http://1.usa.gov/1KyESWn  It could be strategically placed to monitor movements up to 300 meters away. That’s where tigers came in. #GlobalTigerDay

      Our scientists had to disguise the tech so it would blend into the natural habitat & not be disturbed. As tigers are native to Vietnam & were found in larger numbers 50 years ago, they were ideal cover. Detection device was designed to look like tiger droppings. #GlobalTigerDaypic.twitter.com/QKVK4kpmci

          Fueled by tiny power cells & with a built-in antenna, device tracked movement by detecting & counting vibrations from passing people, vehicles, & animals. Data would be relayed via coded pulses Watch Where You Step: Tiger Scat or CIA Tech? http://bit.ly/2K1ZQmO  #GlobalTigerDay

          With all of this high tech stuff, why was the Tet offensive of 1968 such a surprise? It took a while for all of those troops to assemble, but the massive number of attacks stunned everyone. Did CIA withhold the information. The attacks destroyed the Viet Cong and USA morale.
