A trainer is recovering after a Bengal tiger clawed and dragged her at a fair in Pensacola, Florida. School children on a trip witnessed the attack inside the cage. The woman suffered several cuts and was taken to the hospital for treatment.

That can’t be. Tigers are our friends. It loved the trainer and she loved it!All she had to do was give it wuv and kisses and some nummy treats! Maybe if all the kiddies had started singing “The Circle of Life”./sarc Lions tigers same difference.

The tiger is the apex predator of felines. Pound for pound it is one of the most deadliest and powerful animals on the planet. Why in the world some dumb human thinks it can be humiliated into preforming circus tricks is beyond me.

My sympathy. For the cat.

[T-Bone Texan]

I wholly agree with what you said about zoos, circuses, and turtles.

But i can say that this trainer knows his craft. Incredible what he gets this lions and tigers together to do. But very risky. Cranky lions and tigers at Ringling Bros. circus But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. (James 3:8)

I recall seeing Gunther Gebel-Williams perform for Ringling. He was a master, if you like that kinda stuff.

I suspect his cats were very well cared for.
