How often do you see an athlete put everything he has into the game, and then have trouble adjusting to normal life after his career is over?  Sad really.  Wonder what he was doing in New Zealand?  Perhaps trying out for the team?   :frown:

Brilliant.

Kill a white tiger.


There must be about 100 left on earth!!!!


all because the thing did what it has been doing for hundreds of thousands of years.


Humans aren't on top of the predatory chain.

The 100 white tigers on earth is probably about 95 more than there ever were on the planet at any one time prior to organized breeding of them by man.

 :rolleyes: Zookeeper got what he was asking for... tiger got what he deserved... order and balance are restored. Cost of keeping wild animals...

Roy Horn, and now this zoo keeper, found out the hard way. You play with matches, kids, and sooner or later you're going to get burned. Cage a wild animal, no matter how nice you treat them and pamper them, sooner or later they're going to turn on you.

Once the tiger gets the smell and taste of human blood, he's a maneater... had to be put down.
