....entered the animal's enclosure while the lion slept and was attacked by the big cat as he tried to tap it on the nose.

No, the lion didn't attack the drunk. The drunk attacked the lion, the lion was startled from a sound nap and defended itself.

"Slaps Lion’s Nose" beats "Spanks Monkey."

My only other option was "Taps Camel's Toe".
