    I wonder how it escaped.

    BTW, I meant to post this in general.

    OMG, that is one heck of a way to die, getting killed by a Tiger. Good Grief, that is a heck of the way to end the year, and your life. As I write this post, I'm picturing myself at the Zoo, enjoying the holiday, looking forward to the New Year, when suddenly I'm attacked by a tiger................I don't even want to think about it anymore, I just want to end the post here. The only thing I can hope is that he didn't feel a whole lot, but it is was Tiger for crying out loud.

    I guess it's not a bad idea to keep some cat treats in your pocket, just in case.

    Sucks for that one guy:


    Notice the cops didn't bother with the tazers in this case.

    best way to die IMO. there'd be nothing better than to look down from heaven/hell and see somebody checking the obituaries "Nate K died on tuesday after fighting a tiger to the death.

    I saw that story. It sounds like a worse version of what happened to one of the zoo keepers who was feeding this tiger in San Francisco. If seems like they would have a way to get the tigers under control (water cannon, tranquilizer, etc.)

    You would think they'd keep visitors away from the tigers.
