Two of the victims were eating in a cafeteria 100 yards away. Inside. This tiger is not a homing tiger that mauls anyone the taunts him and leaves the rest alone. Remember this is the same tiger that took off the hand that fed him.

The zoo is at fault. It did not protect its patrons, or the citizens of the city, or its employees, or the tiger itself which is now dead.

Taunt or no taunt, the tiger should not be able to get over the wall. And the zoo should protect the tiger against abuse anyway.

My thought is the tiger probably kept a log book of those that had taunted her and just waited for them to show up in front of her enclosure. She probably spent hours at night testing the "jump" she would have to make to get her revenge.(sarc)

I agreed that attributing human thought processes to wild animals, or even to a family dog, is foolish at best.

No. All three victims were together when the tiger escaped, killing one of them. The other two ran for the cafeteria, which was closed. The tiger chased them. You make it sound like the two survivors didn't know the dead boy, when in fact they all arrived together.
