Chances are the Tiger overstretched its mouth.

Similar to humans getting a lockjaw when they yawn too hard.

You have to be very gentle.

You might want to get help to hold the Tiger down while you concentrate on the mouth. Just make sure the other pair of hands plus yours do the temperature acclimatising as well. So as not to shock the Tiger when colder/hotter hands handle the Tiger.

At least you tried.
In trying you still have hope.
Not trying possibly mean no hope.

Think about it.
