Right, that's the whole point here.  It is not the animals fault, this is what is ingrained into their behavior.  As a parent, I would never let my kids do something stupid like this.  Sitting on the tiger's back?  Insane.

I wish I could find an article on it, but so far I can't.

"Apparently the handlers were very confindent with their ability to control these "domesticated" cats and started showing them at the local high schools."

I have little respect or patience for such people. These clowns that think they know the mind of animals simply because they "train" those animals are some of the most logic-starved humans that walk the planet.

Causing an animal to react in a somewhat predictable manner does not mean we understand what's going on in their minds.

"I've taken to crying at those sentimental AT&T commercials."

Does crying when I get their bill count?

Re: "The reason for the attack is that the girl was straddling atop of the Tiger like riding a horse, when the animal turned it's head to look at her, she then SCREAMED and frightened the Tiger, so he attacked.

The Tiger's owner was a long time friend of her family."


Where did you hear - or read this information? I'd be interested in reading it if it is written. Thanks!

Oh sure..... Everyone blames the dumb animal ... just forgets about a certain Guatemalan busboy and a certain jealous costar.
