A human life is worth infinitely more than a tiger’s.

Placing higher value on the lives of animals is part of the brainwashing of cultural Marxism.

I don't think deputies carry tranquilizer rifles in their squad car. Besides, how long do you think it takes before the medicine takes effect?

Here's an incident where the zoo did exactly what you are suggesting:

Ummm, they don’t have tranquilizer shots on hand for quick use. What do you think this is, Mutual of Omaha Wild Kingdom?
The Tiger wasn’t letting go of the arm. Had to shoot immediately.

Yeah, or why didn't the cop just "wing" the tiger?

Or . . . perhaps the cops didn't want to wait half an hour for the tranquilizers to take effect.

You can hear on the video responders asking for tranquilizers. None available.
