I read that they shot and killed it.
I guess they don’t have any tranquilizer Dart Guns in Atlanta.

They do, the authorities thought the time frame of getting a tranquilizer gun to the scene was too great a risk to human life...
This is afterall a tiger...
“I guess they don’t have any tranquilizer Dart Guns in Atlanta.”
They have them, and there was a request for them. But before the guns arrived, the cat jumped fences and was closing in on a school bus stop with kids. They had to take it.
Sad as these animals are endangered and are being harvested by poachers. In the wild, there are about 3200 tigers left according to Nation Geographic in 13 countries. But there are considerable in zoo’s to include the US and there has been a successful breeding program. So we are increasing the tiger population. But not in the wild. These zoo bred animals could not survive in the wild as they don’t know how and they could not be introduced in the wild with other tigers as they are extremely territorial and would kill the newcomers. Sad

Pass up an opportunity to blow something/someone away? What kind of cops do you think these were?
