The caretaker put her arm in the cage while the tiger was eating.

Not according to what I read:

The tiger apparently reached its paws through steel bars and grabbed the trainer's arms while she was answering questions from the public after the 2 p.m. feeding.

There you go, putting facts into a nice discussion of feelings!

Bet you vote Republican sometimes, too...

The tiger apparently reached its paws through steel bars and grabbed the trainer's arms while she was answering questions from the public after the 2 p.m. feeding.

Translation:

The trainer was inattentive and standing too close to the cage after the 2 p.m. feeding.

Once the cats have been fed, any trainer doing the feeding is supposed to put sufficient distance betweem himself and the cage bars so that the animal can't reach him.

Don't blame the zoo. People have stood outside that cage for 67 years without getting their arm mauled by a tiger. Must have been that woman's fault.
