smokinandjokin Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I don't know how this ever sounded like a good idea. Poor girl, it is a tragedy...but just a bad idea from the start. article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 The key word in the article is "restrained".... "posing for photos with the 7-year-old tiger, which was being restrained by its handler" If the tiger has to be restrained for the photo, I wouldn't even bother trying to take the photo.

TigerJ Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 I'm in my senior picture. Does that count? Actually I didn't pick up the moniker ("Tiger") until well after I was out of high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillnutinHouston Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 If my tiger just killed someone, I wouldn't immediately return a phone call for comment either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailog80 Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Kill the tiger.......yeah it was his fault. WTF? Put a wild animal in that predicament and it kills someone......jeez how odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a wild animal in that predicament and it kills someone......jeez how odd. 412928[/snapback] You know, after the fact, I agree. It's probably law, though. Meant to deal mostly with dogs. If my neighbor's pit bull mauled the mail lady, I'd want it put down too. The idiots putting that poor girl in that situation are the ones to blame on this one, though. On the other hand, if the tiger had to be restrained while she had photos taken, I really would have hoped *someone* would have had some type of portable cannon available while they had it out playing amongst the humans.

But if her parents and/or the keeper of that Tiger told her it was safe, why the hell should she doubt 'em? -Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
