The Interpreter Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Another thumb: Jaguar Tears Off Visitor's Thumb At Florida Wildlife Sanctuary: The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission reported Friday that a woman, whose name wasn't released, had her hand in a cage at the Panther Ridge Conservation Center in Wellington when a jaguar bit her. The Feb. 19 attack remains under investigation. Panther Ridge's owner, Judy Berens, was cited for not having the proper supervision and barrier between the public and the exotic cat. She faces a fine of up to $500. The jaguar will not be euthanized.... http://preview.tinyurl.com/ydf9ejs Sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CincyMan98 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 What's wrong with people? It seems like all this is happening at the exact same time! Either all animals are on mind control or people are just getting dumber and dumber as the days move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CedarPointer Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Was her hand *supposed* to be in the cage? If not... well... let's just say that guests don't surprise me anymore... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 Given the proprietor was charged with not having the proper supervision, I'd say the chompee was not supposed to have her hand in the cat's cage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windshawne Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Why should the owner be charged for a lack of common sense on the visitor? Hello......there was a time when common sense prevailed; its a shame that no longer applies. Once again, animals cannot be predictable, and her hand shouldn't have been in there, period.
