Would be interesting to put a compilation of past Tiger attacks together, as there have been some incredible prior incidents. One that comes to mind is the one in San Fran some years ago where some teenagers were tormenting a tiger in its outdoor enclosure for a fairly long while. Later in the day, the tiger managed to scale the walls of the enclosure and climb out.

Interestingly, after it did it walked along the paths purposely hunting down its tormentors, ignoring all the other people it passed on the way. When it finally tracked down the guy who I suppose had bothered him the most, he killed him. Didn’t try to eat him. Just killed him.

Actually, one young man was killed and the two it tracked were mauled.

Any of Jim Corbett’s books on hunting man-eating tigers in India make for good reading. Check them out on Amazon.
