Man killed by Tiger

[Mups]

A man got into the Tiger enclosure at a Zoo hear Doncaster today.
He was then attacked,  and air lifted to hospital, where he died.

I can only think perhaps he was deeply depressed, and wanted to end it maybe?   
Awful, isn't it.

That is a horrible way to go.

Certainly he must have been disturbed.
There's footage online showing him sitting in the enclosure and pointing and wagging his finger at the tiger when it paws him . At first you can tell the tiger's thinking 'who the hell are you' and is more curious than aggresive. 
Then clearly it must have mauled him.

Suppose he could have been off his face with drugs and thought that, er, well, god only knows what he might have been thinking.

My daughter lives nearby, often walks there.  It seems he may have been autistic.  The enclosures are pretty safe, it must have taken some effort to get in.

If that were the case,  perhaps he just liked the Tigers and wanted to pet one.

No doubt we'll hear the truth in due course.

Poor man..

So glad the tiger wasn't hurt nor put down.

Whatever the victim's thought processes were, deepest condolences to his family.
