The tiger was being a tiger. What did they expect?

People...these are wild animals?

If they hurt a single hair on this tiger’s head over this there will be hell to pay

This is what happens when you try to take the wild.

Good

A tiger is a tiger. Tigers

That crazy!! Would never of thought!!

Close these animal jails!

It is becoming apparent that animals attack women more than men - Put that on CBS ~

They shouldn't be kept in zoos! They should be in wild preserves and guarded!! Anyone killing any wild animals without a license (like for deer or ducks) should be given 30 years in jail!!

A zoo is a prison for animals.

Zoos & wild animals don't mix.

🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️ it’s a Tiger

Wild animals should be kept in the wild.

Tigers seem to be dangerous

Wild animal

Tiger just went tiger

This is why zookeepers need guard crocodiles while in tiger cages.

Stop the imprisonments of animals.

What do you expect locking a wild animal in a cage
