If in fact they did provoke the animal then the saddest thing is the tiger that was shot and killed for doing what any animal would do and most people also would do. She did not deserve to die for acting like the animal she was.
I have absolutely no sympathy for the boy killed or the ones injured should the provoking of these animals be proved.
For what it is worth, I have not seen one other media source confirm the New York Post’s report regarding a slingshot being used. I still believe it’s true, though.
Why were they the first zoo user in 65 years to be attacked, unprovoked?
