Sensors went off along the river by LCC South Campus this morning.
When agents arrived, nobody was there, but moments later they heard a growling sound; that sound came from a beautiful Bengal tiger.
The four-month-old cub was kept in a small, cramped cage.
Border Patrol says somebody paid a big amount of money for the tiger as a pet, and agents say smugglers don't care about the animals well being.
The tiger cub is being kept safe before he is sent to Taylor, Texas.
