Original Dune
This article or section refers to elements from Original Dune.
The Laza tiger was a genetically edited descendant of the Old Earth tiger, used as a training tool on Salusa Secundus. All Laza tigers were implanted with a control device at birth, allowing them to be controlled by a remote operator. They were all extremely adaptable to harsh environments and could survive on Arrakis.
Two Laza tigers were used by House Corrino in a failed attempt to assassinate the Atreides twins Leto II and Ghanima on Arrakis.
