I found this story interesting. I remember hearing this tale told by a local official on NPR a few months ago. It happened in Siberia.

Cliffs:
A hunter shoots at a tiger and injurs its paw.
The tiger's ability to hunt for game to sustain itself is impaired and it becomes hungry.
The hunter kills a wild boar, returns to his cabin and proceeds to butcher and eat it.
The same tiger had already claimed this boar as it's own prey and had been stalking it.
This tiger followed the poacher's and boar's scent and after some time had passed, managed to track him to the cabin.
The tiger remained for at least a few days and patiently circled the cabin until the man returned from a supply run to town.
The tiger proceeded to kill him, tear him limb from limb, and consume him.
The tiger also went so far as to destroy the outhouse, presumably where it sensed the scent of the man and the boar.
On page three of this article there's the tale of how the tiger claimed another victim a few days later. Another hunter made a journey to a remote lean-to out in the woods. He left to check on his traps. While he was gone the tiger picked up his scent and found the lean-to. This tiger dragged a mattress out of the lean-to and placed it about 10 yards away. The tiger rested on the mattress while it awaited the hunter's return. When the hunter returned to the lean-to the tiger claimed another victim.
It's chilling how the tiger decided to claim a vendetta on the first hunter and how it patiently stalked the second one instead of running around in the wild hunting animals.
