The director of an animal sanctuary in Arizona was seriously injured on Monday when he was attacked by a tiger at the facility.
"Jonathan was concerned for the welfare of several large cats in his approximate area including the tiger and took unilateral action to allow them access to protection from the elements," the sanctuary said in a statement on Wednesday."During that process, a safety protocol had obviously failed resulting in the incident."
The tiger, Bowie, was taken into the sanctuary last year after previously being owned as a pet. The animal was declawed as a cub and had difficulty walking, the sanctuary said. Keepers of the Wild is a nonprofit that cares for 150 exotic animals, including tigers, lions, leopards, bears and wolves. The facility is open to visitors, but was being closed due to the storm, the sanctuary said.
They are so beautiful,not sure what triggers their anger.
Leave the tigers alone. Mmmmm Kay?
The TigerNet. Humans couldn’t possibly understand.💋💋
I hope the person recovers well, and also hope the animal is protected. People need to understand cats' behavior and wild animals' behavior. It may be bored, and want out.
Another reason to release wild animals into the Wild.
That’s what tigers do. They are top predators.
Although it's a sanctuary for wild animals. This is a predatory animal who kills live animals to feed. It's in the lion nature to want to hurt and eat live food.
Need video footage of the attack..
They are wild animals what makes man think that they are able to tame them and make them stop having the innate Savage nature that is within them that is how they were created and that is how they will always be.
What is with these people getting attacked ?
😮
