Pair who survived tiger attack reportedly withholding photos from police
Mercury News ^ | January 4,2008 | Mercury News

The two brothers injured in the Christmas Day tiger attack at the San Francisco Zoo have refused to let police examine photos on their cell phones that authorities believe were taken the day they were mauled and their friend was killed.

< snip >

"We also understand that police officers requested permission from your clients to examine any images and other contents of the cell phone. Your clients refused to cooperate with this request; consequently, no one has yet examined this potentially critical evidence."

. If you scream hay dumb tiger, he is not going to get angry because he does not know he’s a tiger.

Yes, I am aware of PETA and their euthanizing animals. I was more or less being snarky about how PETA would be more concerned about the Tiger than the person. I forget to use my sarcasm tag sometimes.

Thanks for the info, though.

"So what is taunting and how do you do it."

When the tigers laying down resting, you walk up and start yelling, screaming, jumping up and down and throwing things. With, or w/o that last part, you pick up a rock and line it right at him, to hit him hard, so the pain sends him into a rage.

I believe orgwhodat thinks animals have no thought processes. Animals don’t think.They don't know if they are a tiger or a pig etc

I don't agree with that at all.

I'm sure he means they don't understand English. It's the tone and volume of the voice that counts, and the body language that goes along with it.

"If you scream hay dumb tiger, he is not going to get angry because he does not know he’s a tiger."

The scream will do the talking, that will alert the tiger of the clymer's presence. If the loud mouth sounds and strutting continues, it will annoy the tiger and they'll take it as a territorial challange. No animal appreciates the presence of clymers, especially when they're trying to relax.

Lordy I don’t remember. The only monkey name I DO remember from way back when is Mr. Moke.

People weren’t screaming, the monkey was.

My brother had a German Shepherd. He said she understood English. I told him, "No - she understands the tone and inflection of the voice - not the words."

He told me to try it.

The dog was sleeping by my feet. I softly spoke her name and petted her. Then, in my sweetest voice, told her, "Star, you are one of the ugliest dogs I have ever seen."

She jumped up, and showed me teeth with two inches of gum and growled loudly at me. I became a believer, at that point.

I think zoos are open on Christmas for the same reason Disneyland is open on Christmas (and Disneyland is insanely crowded on that day)—it’s something to do with the kids after morning gift opening!

I’m sure Disneyland and other kid-friendly places make a lot of money during the “holiday season;” people are on vacation and many parents don’t want to be cooped up with lots of kids in the house. . .

Then I misunderstood your post. I did not want to let anyone get away with giving PETA an undeserved “moral highground” when they do not deserve it. I will read your posts now with a “/s” etched into my screen.

Sorry but you heard wrong. There were two memorials. One for Carlos and the other for the tiger.

I am curious, why are you so down on the zoo?

Good question. I laid in bed last night thinking about it.

Imagine that we have a semi-truck that jumped the curb and ran over three boys, killing one. And the very first thing the president of the trucking company does is to blaim the boys and claim that the driver must have been distracted by the them.

"The driver could have easily lost control if he was blinded by a laser the boys were playing with." Then we find out there was no laser.

Secondly, we are offered another story. "The boys had slingshots." But they didn't. etc., etc.

The bottom line is that the truck should have stayed on the road even if the boys were trying to distract the driver.
