Everyone's expecting it, but has The Walking Dead just confirmed Ezekiel and his pet tiger Shiva for season seven?
The official Instagram for the comics might have said something it shouldn't have, as it was quick to edit its caption to a newly-posted picture.
"Don't worry #WalkingDead show fans. You'll get to meet Ezekiel and Shiva next season," it originally teased.
But now it's pretending it never said anything of the sort.

Executive producer of the TV show Greg Nicotero previously suggested that the crew have already had discussions about possibly incorporating Shiva the tiger into the series.

"We've started those conversations, and I'm very confident in the path that we've chosen in terms of how we're going to execute that, but I don't want to get into too much," he teased.
In the comics, Ezekiel is the leader of a community named The Kingdom.
The last two episodes of season six hinted at their introduction. In the finale, Morgan is offered help by two survivors with a horse and wearing combat armour after saving Carol.
