In recent days, LSU was giving a young tiger name Harvey a trial run and testing him to see if he had what it took to be the school’s new mascot.
On Monday morning, it became official. Upon being released into his new on-campus habitat, Harvey is now Mike VII.
Based on the video below, Mike seems to be taking to his new home well:

LSU started its fall semester on Monday, and Mike VII started his new job right along with them. Here’s hoping the new mascot has a long and happy life in Baton Rouge.
