You could do , I do it , I did think you meant just tigers in general though , as a rule of thumb I just freeze my tiger hookbaits in little packets complete with slime and just take what I need every trip

For hookbaits I just stick some in a pot with some Betalin and they seem to last indefinitely, in fact Hinders now sell tiger nuts in Betalin for that very purpose

Glycerin (glycerol) is hygroscopic and so will absorb water over time, so in theory would gradually dehydrate your baits.
No idea how long it would take to have any visible effect on tigers though.

Half a cup of water, half a cup of brown sugar. Simmer until the solution thickens a little. Allow to cool. Add tigers. Will last for ever.

If you dump them in pure glycerol they can shrink visibly, in my experience.
