Agree. Life is hard. It’s harder if you’re stupid.

| Some news sources are calling the incident “tragic.” The only tragedy would have been if the tiger had been killed. I can feel sympathy for some of the people who were affected by the incident, but none whatsoever for the self-centered fool.

| Couple years ago there was a YT video of some Asian tourists driving through a wildlife park, maybe in India, one got out of the car for a closer look and a tiger dragged him away and ate him. I called my GF, asked if she wanted to see a tiger get a meal, and when she asked what was for dinner, I shouted back, "Chinese".

I suspect that Hobbs welcomed the diversion.

I remember that. It was a woman who got out of the car to argue with her husband and while facing the car the tiger snuck up behind her and that argument was over. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/hV7UqWNO0qY?ra=m |

What is the soup du jour?
| If the tiger escaped its enclosure and actively targeted guests without significant provocation, sure, euthanasia would be warranted and recommended. However, a tiger doing tiger things in its enclosure should not be grounds for termination. Sad an allegedly disabled guest managed to penetrate the enclosure, but the blame lies on his handlers, not the creature. |

| I don’t need to watch the video. If he went in willingly, no reason to hold the tiger accountable. If he was bad off mentally, should of had a chaperone with him. |
