Tiger rips off volunteer's arm at animal refuge near Kiowa (Colorado)

[Glenn E. Meyer]

People who keep such animals as pets are idiots. My mother-in-law lived near such
a jerk who had a lion. You heard it
roaring all night. In a residential neighborhood, yet.

Hey Art,

I am actually working in a Tiger recovery program rigth now. It is true that there are more tigers in captivity (mostly private) than the wild now. The reason being, that there is not really a shortage of tigers, but there is an extreme shortage of habitat. If it were not for people breeding them in captivity, they would be extinct now, if not soon.
