There are numerous pieces of human garbage whose permanent removal from the gene pool would be a great good thing, and yes they are definitely less than a cow or a mule who perform useful services.

He should have known better, friendly tiger or no friendly tiger.

Why kill the Tiger?
Hope the cleaner loses his arm.

They should have shot the cleaner.

No, that's mean. They should have shot his arm off and saved him as well as the tiger. The man would never pet the tiger again, and the tiger gets a snack.

...the victim was a man with a third-party cleaning service contracted by the zoo.

So, to save a few bucks, the zoo hires a 3rd party cleaning service. Just how much was that tiger valued at, which they unfortunately had to shoot?

“A Florida man....”

Editor missed a possible once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lead with “Florida Tiger...”

Blake was a left wing jackass who have been sent to Van Diemans Land but I love that verse.

Thanks for speaking sense. This had nothing to do with the guy being an idiot. It was about saving a life with the resources that were available at the time.

“Tigers are fierce! Tigers have teeth and claws that pierce! Tigers are great! They can’t be beat! If I was a tiger that would be neat!”

Cat behavior. Why shoot the tiger?

Zoos are cruel. The only animals that should be in zoos are ones that can no longer survive on their own.

Being “rare” or “cute” isn’t enough of a reason. Put all the healthy ones BACK where they belong, if possible.

Then don’t ADD any new healthy animals to zoos.

Read the headline and thought Tiger Woods had stepped in it again.

Just because Tiger broke his leg, that’s not a reason to shoot him. He is not a horse!

Tiger: “Yeah, yeah. Big man. Tiger-tamer. Blah, blah, blah...”

Why not use the taser?

Animal killed.for Hunan’s stupidity.

And a fortune will be spent in medical care of a stupid human.

There’s no way the cleaner will earn enough to pay for replacing the tiger,nor his own medical bills.

I know and my heart hurts that wild animals can be kept in the places you mention. Something needs to be done and if PETA were even trying to be trustworthy wouldn’t they put up a stink about it? What about Dr. Grouchy and the Beagle lab experiments? I pray for the animals and the way they’re treated. Breaks my heart...;(
