# arf
there's something always quite poetic about people keeping wild animals, thinking they've got them 'mastered', and then suddenly getting eaten by them.

# There was an item on the news...
...the day after the er, "accident" claiming that, in the USA, there are 10,000 privately kept tigers. That's more than in the bloody wild!

# I always wanted a black panther,
so I could put "beware of the cat" signs on my gate, and tempt burglars to think my house was a soft target.

# in
the same appartment, they also found a 1 meter long Cayman.

according to the bitten guy (who first said it was a pitbull), he had just adopted a small kitten, and tried to save the kitten when his pet tiger tried to eat it.

ladies and gentleman, please note: even if you have a somewhat tame(or at least THINK it is tame..) tiger, coming between a tiger and its food may be one of the stupidest things you can do.

# lions are soft though
one of the Namibian rugby players at teh world cup (Schelk van something or other) has a sanctuary for wild animals. One day one of the lions had got hold of a babboon and was going to eat it, so the rugger player tried to snatch it out of his jaws. when this failed, he punced it in the face. The lion did a long blink, so he headbutted it, and when this failed, he hit it over the head with a rock. the lion was knocked out and he was able to retrieve the babboon, which later died.
true story (no, really)
