						<p>LA really is an urban jungle.</p>
<p>Christine Quinn, known for starring in Netflix&#8217;s real estate reality show &#8220;Selling Sunset,&#8221; has reportedly taken extreme measures in response to recent &#8220;terrifying&#8221; threats upon her life — including hiring human, canine <em>and</em> feline security guards.</p>
<p>After showcasing herself and her house on the TV series, her neighbors warned that &#8220;a lot of weird things were happening in the area,&#8221; <strong>the UK&#8217;s Daily Star reported</strong>. She said it was &#8220;a little scary&#8221; that people knew where she lived.</p>
<p>Her response: &#8220;If guns and dogs don&#8217;t scare people, we need a tiger.&#8221;</p>
<p>And after further thought, she came to the conclusion that this was actually a good idea.</p>
<p>&#8220;I decided it would be really fun to do that,&#8221; she said. &#8220;So we found this guy who trains tigers as pets and got one.&#8221;</p>
<p>Now, Quinn, 31, and her husband, Christian Richard, have a full-time, multispecies private defense team at their Los Angeles mansion, which was <strong>recently featured on &#8220;MTV Cribs.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;We have got full-time security. There are armed guards and canine unit dogs,&#8221; as well as the tiger, who is &#8220;so friendly&#8221; that she doesn&#8217;t keep him on a leash, she said.</p>
<p><span class="embed-youtube" ><iframe title="Video" class='youtube-player' width='640' height='360' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/3Jkh6joC5B0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;autohide=2&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'></iframe></span></p>
<p>While the big cat made Quinn feel happy and safe, the California Fish and Game Code &#8220;makes it a misdemeanor to keep as a pet any animal that is endangered or which the department considers a threat to public health and safety or to native fish, wildlife, or agriculture,&#8221; according to a <strong>state law firm</strong>.</p>
<p>However, when contacted by The Post, a representative for Quinn said that the reality star did not actually possess a ferocious pet feline.</p>
<p>&#8220;Christine Quinn does not own a tiger. Her statements were simply an embellishment as part of a storyline for MTV Cribs,&#8221; her publicist told The Post in a statement. &#8220;The appearance of the tiger was fully permitted by the Los Angeles Department of Animal Services. Additionally, an officer from the Animal Protection Unit of LA Animal Services was on-site to guarantee the tiger’s wellbeing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Quinn, for her part, is shocked that she has been driven to acquire a wild animal for protection.</p>
<p>&#8220;I never thought I would be the kind of person who would need all this &#8230; having armed guards in the driveway,&#8221; she said. &#8220;But I’m thankful to be in this position. You’re only hated if you’ve done something great. That’s how I like to look at it.&#8221;</p>
<p>As a child, she explained, she had very little, let alone a pet tiger, and she feels like she&#8217;s earned it.</p>
<p>&#8220;When I was young, my family were poor. So it’s all very surreal for me to have this life,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I didn’t grow up with these things. But I feel like I’ve worked really hard. I enjoy it and I love it.&#8221;</p>
