September 21, 201213 yr Idiot. jcgoble3, who would like to comply with the TOS but doesn't have anything else to say
September 21, 201213 yr hopefully this doesnt create a push to make guests tied into the train or to have the train have sides... 1 person's inability to make a good choice will cause others to have things changed on them.
September 21, 201213 yr But it was a nice looking kitty cat and I just wanted to pet it and tell it I am not going to harm it. Tony Tiger saw lunch coming but you can't blame the cat. No doubt he will have lawyers contact him and he will sue.

No doubt he will have lawyers contact him and he will sue. The tiger will sue? That would be news (and fitting).
September 22, 201213 yr Well I know one tiger that wont go hungry tonight and I know one man that's never going to get his leg back.
September 22, 201213 yr When will people realize that these are not the same kittys that you have on your lap purring away. These and other wild animals are just that, wild. That chimp that you saw in the Tarzan films was a baby chimp and as people found out, they are very strong animals and will rip your face off, which they have done. These cats can kill you with one swoop of the paws and tear off your head and leg. You do not go into their living area and jump off of a tram or other means of transport to see them and give them a big hug. If you want your own tiger to hug, buy a toy stuffed tiger.
September 22, 201213 yr Just stupid. Glad to hear they won't put the tiger down though. The tiger did nothing wrong and will not be euthanized, zoo officials said. It was back in a holding area where it usually sleeps at night.

It was back in a holding area where it usually sleeps at night. No way should it be put down. It's a tiger - a wild animal - a carnivore. What do you expect it to do when there's an intruder?
September 22, 201213 yr But it was a nice looking kitty cat and I just wanted to pet it and tell it I am not going to harm it. Tony Tiger saw lunch coming but you can't blame the cat. No doubt he will have lawyers contact him and he will sue. The tiger will sue? That would be news (and fitting). Sure, unless the tiger fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, but I think the doctrine of ad impossibilia nemo tenetur would definitely apply (not even wild cats are obligated to perform the impossible). For fifteen minutes of fame, that guy'd give his....
September 22, 201213 yr Author Oh, please: "I wanted to be one with the tiger." "Everybody in life makes choices." http://www.boston.com/news/nation/2012/09/22/mauled-man-wanted-one-with-the-tiger/t9F04uEDM5SM346vKB6UKK/story.html To be arrested for trespassing. Here comes an insanity defense. Sigh.

September 22, 201213 yr Tony Tiger was hunger so he called for a take out order. Are people that stupid that they feel the need to get THAT close to nature?
September 22, 201213 yr This man has watched way too many nature flicks. He is quoted as , "...Wanting to be one with the tiger." He was lucky Tony Tiger, what I call him, was not all that hungry or he would had really been "one with the tiger!"
