One morning, Tigger and Roo went off together. Roo was asking Tigger about all the things a Tigger could do. Tigger announced that climbing trees is what Tiggers do best. So, Roo hopped on Tigger's back and they started climbing up the tallest of the Six Pine Trees. When they were close to the top, a branch broke and they almost fell. It was then that Tigger realized that climbing down the tree wasn't going to be so easy afterall. Of course, he didn't tell Roo this.

After awhile, Pooh and Piglet walked by.

"Look Pooh!" said Piglet suddenly, "There's something in one of the Pine Trees."

"So there is!" said Pooh, looking up wonderingly. "There's an Animal." Piglet took Pooh's arm, in case he was frightened.

"Is it one of the Fiercer Animals?" he said, looking the other way. Pooh nodded.

"It's a Jagular," he said.

"What do Jagulars do?" asked Piglet, hoping that they wouldn't.

"They hide in the branches of trees, and drop on you as you go underneath," said Pooh. "Christopher Robin told me."

"Perhaps we better hadn't go underneath, Pooh. In case he dropped and hurt himself."

"They don't hurt themselves," said Pooh. "They're such good droppers."

Piglet still felt that to be underneath a Very Good Dropper would be a Mistake, and he was going to hurry back for something which he had forgotten when the Jagular called out to them.

"Help! Help!" it called.

"That's what Jagulars do," said Pooh, much interested. "They call ?Help! Help!? and then when you look up, they drop on you."

"I'm looking down," cried Piglet loudly, so as the Jagular shouldn't do the wrong thing by accident. Something very excited next to the Jagular heard him and squeaked:

"Pooh and Piglet! Pooh and Piglet!" All of a sudden Piglet felt that it was a much nicer day than he had thought it was. All warm and sunny...

"Pooh!" he cried, "I believe it's Tigger and Roo!"

"So it is," said Pooh. "I thought it was a Jagular and another Jagular."

Read more about Roo and Tigger's adventures at the Six Pine Trees in Chapter 4 of the House at Pooh Corner. Though, sometimes, not only does Tigger get stuck, he also ends up lost among the pine trees. Then, he needs to be found before Christopher Robin can help get him down.

A much safer place for Tigger to bounce is his bouncy Peg game. It is nicer to bounce over Tigger than it is to bounce up into a tree.
