Ouch...

Poor Roy.. ;-) What's Siegfried without Roy?

 

[vampireuk]

Like I said, they screw around with animals like that and something bad will happen :

..and dragging him off stage.

.. @ which point the crowd started to cheer.

 

[Talas]

Could anyone now tell me why the will kill the Tiger? Why not put it in a Zoo? Or even better, set it free at last.

 

[AlphaWolf]

I heard of a bobcat dragging a 200lb person up into a tree once...scary shit

 

[Allnatural]

Remember that Simpsons episode where the tiger attacks Roy (or Siegfried?)?


Probably won't see that one for a while. h34r:

 

[DuDe]

Or even better, set it free at last.

Because in some places, setting free a 1000lb's tiger that has attacked people in the past may actually not sound like a good idea?

Well you can't blame the tiger, stick it in a zoo I say. Putting it down would be stupid as it is hardly the tigers fault.

 

[DuDe]

Zoo may be a good idea, but releasing it is probably as dumb as killing it in my humble opinion.

 

[Trotterwatch]

Setting it free in the wild will most likely see it killed within weeks. Putting it in a Zoo is the sensible approach, putting it down most certainly isn't.

@Trotterwatch

You could slowly accustom it to living in the wilderness, the way they do when they find wounded or diseased wild animals. After helping and curing them they slowly accustom them to living in the wild again. You could do that with the tiger, though I rather think they will put him in a zoo, since the one thing actually costs money and the other might get you some money. :chef:

@Dude

Well I didnt mean to release it right in the middle of central park, of course. Releasing it into its natural habitat shoudltn pose that much of a problem. :bouncy:

Well, you'll say that until one day you see it gnawing on a human femur the split second before its fangs have sunken one inch into your jugular

 

[Remote]

Hehe, putting it to sleep seems like such a waste and you can't really blaim the tiger, who wouldn't go mad after a couple of days with Roy and Siegfrid in a cage...

 

[DuDe]

You know, I can imagine that tiger in a cage at the Zoo... With a big sign saying "Come and see the tiger that attacked Roy!"... I bet that it would be one heck of an attraction.

 

[GogoTheMimic]

I heard as he was taken to the hospital the only thing he said was "Don't kill the animal" or something like that. It'd be stupid for them to put it down, put it in a zoo so everybody could enjoy the bugger!
