There are only 2,000 Bengal tigers in captivity, which is why they are on the most endangered species list. But somehow one of these ferocious beasts made it on the cover of Tyga's new album, 'Hotel California,' which debuted this week.

The Compton rapper looks fearless on the cover as he mean-mugs the camera, donning a white fur coat and hat. Lucky for him, the tiger didn't see Tyga as prey with all the fur he was wearing. However, PETA may not be too thrilled with both the real tiger and Tyga's fur accessories on display.

The cover looks a little photoshopped but there is video evidence that a real tiger was actually on the set during Tyga's album cover shoot.
