Illusionist Roy Horn answers questions during an interview in Las Vegas Thursday, Sept. 29, 2005. On Oct. 3, two years will have passed since Horn was attacked by one of his tigers during a performance. The mauling left Horn partially paralyzed and ended the long-running 'Siegfried & Roy' production. (AP Photo/Las Vegas Sun, Steve Marcus)

Prayers for his continued recovery. It was a miracle he survived and it's taken tremendous determination and work, for him to get this far.
It is nice to see some positive news.
The Tiger almost made Roy disappear

Interesting update.
Roy - the Other White Meat!
You are right, we could all use a little good news these days.
I'm curious, if you know, are the cats still on display at the casino now? We were in Vegas for just a few hours overnight last year, and while none of the big name shows playing were of any interest, this one might have been.
Served with white wine, or red?
I really dont know. I remember they were on display in cages when I went and they also had a dolphin habitat.
We stayed at the Mirage but it was a long time ago...14 years.
Keyboard, liquids, you know the drill.
Last January,in Orlando,I saw the prepwork for a show similar to S&R show.I saw a woman who was about 5' 1" smackin' a nasty lookin' male lion on the snout to control him.
I was amazed that the lion didn't realize that he could take out that kid,with ease,in about 5 seconds.
hey you ;-)

Sigfrid and Roy are, ahem, lovers. Capeche.
These guys need to stick with "Viking Kitties".
