But you watch...dead boy's family will sue and get money. It's already been said the fence was probably not high enough. Fence needs to be high because we have drunk idiots with slingshots that think it's funny to abuse an animal.

You know...

...I've been patiently waiting for this story to get a little more intersting.
Just didn't sound like the whole story.

I'm not defending three idiots who learned their lesson, but the zoo has a responsibility to keep their animals from getting out of their enclosures. If the fence was too low, someone is going to find themselves called into account. The zoo has the responsibility of protecting everyone, even punks, from animals leaping out of their enclosures. What if the tiger had killed someone who wasn't even involved in this speculated taunting?

Yeah I think I read already where they already plan to sue...I think the judge should say ..Justice served now you pay the zoo $10K for the tiger

...only you.

Don't you feel a twinge of justice that these a holes got attacked by the tiger for what they allegedly did? Don't you think, maybe, that the tiger was able to discern who was attacking him?

Or is the tiger like a gun; a mindless idiot that's gonna kill everyone?
