[edit] Trivia

  • This was the serial debut of Linda Stirling.
  • The Tiger Woman's costume obviously looks nothing to do with tigers (it has spots rather than stripes, for example). However, it is possible that it is meant to be a Jaguar costume and the title should be The Tigre Woman instead (due to it's South American location). Another explanation is that the costume was designed to have a Tiger-like appearance but the studio could not acquire Tiger-design fabric in time for shooting.
  • The serial is also known as "Perils of the Darkest Jungle" and was made under the working title "The Tiger Woman of the Amazon"
