When tigers attack...
AN ill-tempered tiger has struck again
at Gold Coast theme park Dreamworld,
biting a handler for the second time in four months.
Oh this didn't count, this was only teaching the
arrogant fat headed beast what he could get away with
when he was a cub...
Dreamworld's tiger cub Kato
with handler Simon Murray.
Mr Mucci said
Kato was a prime breeding tiger
and there were no plans at this stage
to trade him for a more placid animal.
What The!!!??? "a prime breeding tiger"???!!! THIS...???

KATO: NOT a "prime breeding tiger" IF YOU INTEND
TO BREED PRIME EXAMPLES of BENGAL TIGERS!

Tiger attacks
Main article: San Francisco Zoo tiger attacks
Tatiana, a Siberian Tiger
that attacked 3 people in total and killed one.
On December 22, 2006, Tatiana the 242-pound Siberian tiger attacked zookeeper
Lori Komejan, causing the keeper to be hospitalized for several weeks
with lacerated limbs and shock. The Lion House was closed for ten months
as a result. California's Division of Occupation Safety and Health
found the zoo liable for the keeper's injuries, fined the zoo, and
ordered safety improvements.[6][7][8]
On December 25, 2007, the same tiger escaped from her grotto and attacked three zoo visitors after being taunted by the visitors. Carlos Sousa, 17, of San Jose,
California was killed at the scene. The tiger was shot and killed by
police as she was attacking another victim, who survived. Three other
tigers who shared Tatiana's grotto did not escape.[9][10] Tatiana arrived at the San Francisco Zoo from the Denver Zoo in 2005, in hopes that she would mate.[11] (This "Tatiana" is not the same as the one successfully breeding in the Toronto Zoo.)
The attack is the first visitor fatality due to animal escape at a
member zoo in the history of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums,
according to the association.
