Taunting or not, tigers are tigers and will at any opportunity, bite, maul and kill humans.

The very idea that tigers have the mental faculties to remember exactly who taunted them is totally ridiculous - but we live in an age where people even believe in human induced global warming!

So you have evidence that tigers cannot cognitively target people who taunt them?

I bet the two latter victims were never out of that tigers sight. Remember this was late at night and the zoo was pretty much empty. I bet after the tiger killed its first victim it was right behind the other 2 as they fled. It just caught up with them at the cafe.

The tiger is, and has been for the past thousands of years, a hunter. To say that this animal could not track a specific target seems very far fetched. I would understand your statement if the attacks were random, but the tiger chose it's victims.

This lion obviously remembers the two guys who rescued and raised it as a cub before releasing her a year prior to the video. (Really cool vid.)

Cats have higher brain functions and can definitely distinquish between individuals.

Cats, in general, have tremendous memories. They need that capability so they can retrieve caches of meat they’ve hidden around their range.
