There were between 20-25 visitors at the zoo at the time. Is there a PA system in the zoo?? Did they use it?

How many "situation trained" personal were on hand? Any with authority to shoot to kill? Bet not!!

Tatiana was a breeder, a GOLDEN GOOSE. It's all about money!!

I hope zoos go by the wayside someday.....soon!!

Reports said the PA system had been disconnected years ago after complaints from neighbors.

And nobody could quickly find anyone with a tranquilizer gun or even knew who to call.

And yes, it was about the money.

Zookeepers held the police outside the gates for six minutes while they tried to tranquilize the tiger because they did not want the police to kill it.

I read earlier that it was out of service due to prior complaints about its disturbing residents near the zoo, so could not be used to warn visitors of the danger.
