Mike VI, the tiger mascot who lives in the shadow of LSU's Tiger Stadium, only has about one to two months to live, his primary vet said Wednesday (Oct. 5).The announcement was made during a press conference at the LSU Vet School, which is responsible for Mike's care.Dr. David Baker, who directly oversees Mike VI's care, announced Wednesday morning that a CT and X-ray scans revealed the tumor in the tiger's head had resumed growing and that his cancer had spread elsewhere.Despite what Baker described as an aggressive treatment, small, pea-sized tumors are now along Mike's legs and also in his lungs and neck, Baker said, and his right-side nasal cavity is blocked, which gave him a sinus infection last week.
