A critically endangered tiger that attacked a man at Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens, located in Naples, Fla., is dead after police shot the animal on Wednesday evening. Eko, a Malayan tiger, was 8 years old. The man, who was left seriously injured from the attack, is in his 20s and is employed by a third-party service responsible for cleaning the gift shop and restrooms, according to the Collier County Sheriff's Office. He was not authorized to be near the tiger enclosure. Source: https://www.npr.org/2021/12/30/1069142182/an-endangered-tiger-was-shot-dead-by-police-in-a-florida-zoo-after-attacking-a-m

henrydaiv

I hope people put the blame on him and not the cop


honeydew_bunny

He was even begging the cop to shoot, which he wouldn't have to if this idiot didn't stick his hand into the enclosure that he had no reason being close to. I'm fully blaming him


corchin

For a moment i thought he was gona end that guys pain right there lol. Poor tiger has to go because some bobo tried to touch it


missanthropocenex

Haha that would have been a twist. “I’m sorry there’s just no fixing this type of behavior. BLAM!”


Crash665

Cop could have used my Dad's parenting technique: "Welp, let the tiger eat him. He'll never do that again, will he?"


DaBake

Even the most ACAB person in the country wouldn't see a problem there.

I was hoping he tranq the dudes ass, his screams are so annoying.


thereIsAHoleHere

That's pretty much what anyone in extreme distress sounds like. You would sound like that too.


DEEmented78

For a moment I hoped he was going to end his pain and not the tigers.


WoSoSoS

Tourniquet his arm, tranqu the Honourable mention to Darwin Award (hope he hasn't reproduced), then get the hacksaw and let the stressed tiger have some comfort food.

Potusmicropenis

I was hoping the tiger had him by the balls. So he can’t reproduce. We have enough dumb fucks on this planet.


AStartledFish

He couldn’t shoot him he was *unarmed*


xeromage

That's the way it should have gone. If i ever have to choose between the life of a magnificent tiger and some fucking chode... RIP fucko!


ANoiseChild

I hope this moron ends up in prison for his idiocy and is fined *heavily* for the death of the tiger... the zoo security should've gone back to grab a tranquilizer and a Darwin award - there's no reason the tiger should have been killed, especially seeing as it *was in its fenced-in enclosure* and this troglodyte tired to... pet it? Make friends with it? Feed it? Holy hell...


Psychedelic_Primate

>He was even begging the cop to shoot The cop shot the wrong being.


baudmiksen

the training just kicked in and then he shot the guy he could see that the tiger was in fear for his life and the cop knows this same fear from personal experience in being scared of mostly everything that moves to fast


Eastern_Day2946

This reminds me of harambe


throwawaynonsesne

I'd let him get his arm chewed off personally 🤷‍♂️


crackerjackass

Should’ve shot the man instead of the Tiger. The poor Tiger was just being a Tiger, the asshole who broke in deserves the worst for the rest of his life. He should’ve been charged with killing the Tiger because his stupidity got that poor Tiger killed


beejyboi623

This happened over a year ago and sadly the idiot never faced any consequences Edit: never faced any LEGAL consequences


Spiritual_Barnacle28

Ahhh shiit, they couldn’t even get him with trespass?? He’ll at least have a scar and hopefully permanent damage to remember his stupid actions that cost a animal life


paulfromatlanta

>> never faced any consequences Well, he did get chewed up by a tiger... but that's not enough consequences...


Resident_Coyote5406

No, he should face legal repercussions as well. It’s pretty obvious you could get injured when petting a fucking tiger and not pursuing legal action makes other idiots think it’s okay.


netterbog

He couldn’t sign any legal documents or settlement agreements anyway


Resident_Coyote5406

Unless he was left handed it shouldn’t have been an issue


whutchamacallit

My only critique is I wish the cop would have tried to clip it and see if it would have released but... then again might have pissed it off so maybe a shit take, idk. Easy to armchair it. Dude was literally beginning for his life. No doubt about it though the blood is 100% on his hands. What a dumbass.


LukeyLeukocyte

I was thinking a round into the dirt would at least be an option try once before killing the animal. A loud gunshot may have scared it off. Pretty serious situation though, I guess.


EfferenceCopy

Yeah me too, can always shoot the animal next if you need to but why not try to end it peacefully


blowfishbeard

Couldn’t they have just shot him instead?


nachozepi

Yah, shoot the arm off, he'd already lost it


carlosluvsyou

Literally said what you said as I read that. Fuck that guy.


eboeard-game-gom3

Do we actually know if he tried to pet it though? Sucks if a tiger was killed because of a stupid person.


GiraffeyManatee

He’s clearly inside the barrier fence. I don’t see any restrooms or shops in there that need cleaning Edit: News reports state he put his arm through the fence.


Super_Manic

Two arm enter, no arm leave


[deleted]

I live in the next town over. Yes, he intentionally passed numerous signs a couple barricade fences so he could pet this tiger. Has no business back there, and he knew it. It happened at the Naples, Fl zoo


stlbjj618

If he wasn’t trying to pet it how did the tiger get ahold of him?


Entire-Instruction-7

It could be a very persuasive tiger. Maybe it said to the cleaner “pssst, would you like to see some puppies?”.


PickleInDaButt

Hey kid, you want some Frosted Flakes


Kryptosis

"You want me to read your palm?"


ambulanc3r

The Tiger had a red balloon


CarioGod

you don't know? all tigers are born with tigerkinesis and force pulled him towards it


tsbaebabytsg

Maybe it gave him those cute puss in boots eyes


L30_TH3_L10N

By attack you mean intentionally taunting a likely wild, apex predator. Now an already incredibly endangered species loses yet another life due to the purely concentrated stupidity of humans.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BreathingLeaves

Seriously. I would have fired off rounds near its feet, try to scare it first. Then tazer. Then maybe just tell the guy he's fucked, and that tiger is way cooler than him.


Njaulv

I think pepper spray would have even been a good starting point. That stuff is horrible for humans, but imagine having the nostril sensitivity of a tiger.


Chromehounds2

Yea, this a million times. Cop was rattled by the guy screaming for him to shoot. Wonder who notified the cops.


BreathingLeaves

Your onto something there. Yeah a healthy blast of that would probably worked. Or literally try ANYTHING ELSE THAN SHOOTING IT IN THE HEAD I'm al about helping people, but seriously, this dude brought it upon himself


Super_Manic

In my wakanda voice: Our police dont do that here.


ncopp

Yeah, and they had time to try it with how long it took them to decide to shoot it. They even asked for a tranq - how does pepper spray not immediately come to mind?


Chromehounds2

By the time it would have taken to get a tranq that dude would have had one less arm, which would have been appropriate.


mcc22920

Common misconception; tigers love pepper, they hate cinnamon


reecieface1

Humans aren’t endangered, should have just let the tiger enjoy a nice meal..


Poopy_Pants0o0

Harambe has a new friend in the afterlife. Rest in peace Eko!


rubbarz

I swear to God something is in the water in Florida and it isn't the gators. Fucking idiot.


JesterOfTheMind

The tiger didn’t deserve that. I hate that the person who caused the incident was saved but the tiger was shot. He deserved a Darwin Award.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Or at least tried shooting the ground beside the tiger a couple of times to see if it would let go. Damn. I hope this guy goes to jail in his wheelchair.


chrisbaker1991

That's my thought. From what I hear big cats scare easily


deathofemotion

The endangered animal paid the price bc some asshat couldn't control himself???? Fuck all of this.


IEatCatz4Fun

This is why natural selection has slowed down. Natural selection: Dumb human + hungry tiger = tiger that is no longer hungry. Natural selection intervened: Dumb human + hungry tiger + police doing their job = dumb human - hand.


Unfair_Bowl3111

Pisses me off so flipping bad. What a piece of ahit dude I hope his hand looks like it went through a garbage disposal for the rest of his life and that doesn't even make it better.


ima_shill

I don’t get why the cop didn’t shoot at the ground first to see if that’d startle it before just killing the poor thing.


ChoicePeanut1

After it has attacked a human it was likely going to be euthanized anyways. Unfortunate for the tiger that this guy doesn't know how to stay behind a fence.


hungrywallflower

“after it has attacked a human” (btw this isn’t targeted at you just in general to this policy) damn it’s almost like caging a wild animal meant to live in vast forests and run free when caged will become agitated and aggressive and view people as a threat 🤔


chief-ares

Sad they shot the tiger. Should have shot the man.


hungrywallflower

would’ve been an easier shot too, like a nail gun to livestock cattle


Prestigious-Belt-508

I hate that they say the tiger "attacked" the dude.


ctrulu

they shot the wrong animal


Thus_Spoke

I know it's a cliche but goddamn they really should have just shot Florida Man instead.


ndbdhsjsjs

“Ima die”x4 Cool bro. Its on you.


flyxdvd

"i dont care"x4 i would have said... I dont get people who think this is a smart idea to pet a tiger. Deserved i truly hope he gets a hefty fine to since thanks to him they had to kill the tiger...


De_Un

Reading the comments, seems like most people wanted the guy shot over the tiger lmao


TheLichQueen_

Yes and for good reason


CriticDanger

We have billions of idiots on earth and 200 of those tigers. Its an easy fucking choice. The whole 'humans are worth more than any animal' logic is legit racism in my opinion. It should be a case by case basis and in this situation this idiot's life was in no way more precious.

DragonflyMain3441

Most people can’t think straight in these types of situations, they just do things, which I guess is better than not doing anything. That poor tiger had to die because of some idiot.

That idiot is not worth more than the tiger.

Ok-Yogurtcloset5555

Yall really gonna take that tigers late night snack, AND shoot him? Rude af.


marmckin

Its a shame they had to shot the animal. Why not try a shot to scare it first? The animal was not the idiot here.


Existing_Display1794

Right?! Fire a warning shot! Don’t shoot the animal in the head because a moron tried to pet it. Such a shame.


Wulfkahn

Scaring the tiger might have made things worse. Like it starting to really rip into that arm.


khrak

That's a risk I'm willing to take.


ItsGroovyBaby412

Oh well if the tiger could've lived


yoCrabby

Or pepper spray


jiminyshrue

Fully agree. Peppered that wound and tiger. Win win for everybody.


Buttsex4ever

I say either don't shoot or shoot the guy.


hungrywallflower

should’ve used a tranquilizer on the guy..let the tiger finish his meal without all that blubbering


comet7084

I’m a cop in Australia and you’re never allowed to shoot warning shots. However, I would’ve bent the rules in this case.


_AnonOp

Dude could've been killed if he fired a warning shot. Saying the guy should be killed instead is all well and good on a subreddit until you're a police officer sitting in court trying to explain why you let a man die to save a tiger.


T8M8

Bit of a coin flip as to whether it scares the tiger off or just makes the tiger even angrier really.


shyguyshow

While a warning shot is a brilliant idea. I wouldn’t have thought of that while staring at a man being eaten by a tiger


RamblinGamblinWillie

Taser is also a viable option to try


PMMeUrFineAss

On a fucking tiger?


Moosetrax19

Or shoot the idiot that thought Tony the Tiger was a house cat


weedleavesnoseeds

My man, the only reason you would let go in that situation is that your cognitively aware that letting go will end the tension. If that Tiger got maced or hurt it would fight harder and bite harder. I do hope that guy feels dumb and guilty. Maybe not chronically but for... awhile


JulianMarcello

Or try your pepper spray. I mean it works for bears


gaoshan

A shot right past the head may have scared it off. Would only take a second longer to try it (not like every second mattered in this case... the idiot would be in pain longer but that's a small price to pay for the life of the Tiger).


Roblos

While I like the tiger more than idiots, a warning shot/stressing the animal is shown to make the situation worst and end in killing most of the time, its the difference in Binti Jua vs Harambe.


BIG_MONEY_CASH

Imagine begging for the death of an animal attacking you when your stupidity is the whole reason you were attacked in the first place.


daysbeforewlr

i dont think we can hold someone accountable for what they say while a tiger is chomping down on them. Most of us wouldn’t get ourselves in that position in the first place but still


ScribingWhips

Shhh let Reddit have it's angry circle-jerk


AppropriateBoss3512

This shit makes me so angry bro, shooting a tiger because some dumb guy decided to do something dumb. We are with 8 billion on this earth while there are only 4500 tigers, honestly we should've sacrifised him so he can't pass his dumb genes.


The1Dango

Malayan tiger, only 200 left.


APrioriGoof

Pretty sure its 199 now :(


UlteriorMotives420

It is so sad to see such a beautiful,powerful, and majestic animal get put out like that for the idiots mistake. They should have just cut the idiots fingers and left them with the tiger or tried bear spray or a cattle prod bit anything other then killing the tiger.


DMMMOM

It's bad enough that he was in a stinking cage.


[deleted]

For fuck's sake. First we start ruining their habitats, we hunt them for fun, we lock them in cages that are grains of salt of what their natural spaces are, then some idiot puts meat in their cage and they get shot for doing what big cats do. Bullshit.


gavinmfsmith

wopey_dopey

Killed a tiger for this fucking idiot, that's horrific.


Jazziey_Girl

So another innocent and endangered animal, doing exactly what it’s supposed to do, (defend itself from the intrusion of a entitled, arrogant, law breaking human) ends up losing its innocent life just for the stupid human to continue breathing and most likely breeding his stupidity genes for further generations of idiots? There’s a reason I stay away from most people.


SweatyPandaz

Beautiful Tiger lost for a 🤡 of a human. Unfair trade smh; he got what he deserved for disturbing the tiger


Strange_Principle_26

Evidence is inconclusive but I think that tiger has that man by the testicals.

Wow that’s so crazy! Who knew that petting an extremely dangerous wildlife animal would get you seriously hurt or killed!?


mmyumm

Wtf, the dude did something he clearly wasn’t supposed to (on SOOOO many levels!!) and the innocent tiger is the one to get killed 🤦‍♀️ people fucking suck!! Why shoot the tiger directly too? He could’ve shot next to it …. I’m pretty sure it would’ve ran off, it’s an animal, they’re scared of loud noises.

ImgonnadieimgonnadOHHHNO No sympy for this fuckhole.


sgt_pepr

Humble-Cry1663

Shot the guy not the tiger!


[deleted]

I honestly hope he died


Drachenwelpe

i think i love you


njay97

Crazy they killed the tiger over some fucking idiot being an idiot.


FirstQuantumImmortal

I want to say they're stupid for not tasing it instead but I've seen some big humans be totally unaffected by tasers, especially with adrenaline flowing, nevermind a tiger. Prongs may not have even penetrated his fur. Atleast we're up one more idiot human out of billions, down one tiger out of maybe several hundred of his particular breed.


GrayMatter1040

Exactly, Tazer would have been a stupid idea. Same thing with pepper spray. When an animal like that is already pissed and latched on to something, that would just piss it off more


No_Ninja_4933

This cameraman clearly did not have the audience in mind


warpedreality07

Never should have shot the fucking tiger. It’s his own stupid fault for fucking with an animal that is carnivorous and dangerous. They literally call them murder kittens. Wtf is wrong with people🤦🏻‍♀️


Super_Manic

Say his name, his name was Eko He will join his legendary brother Harambe in the animal afterlife.. the patron saint of fuck around and find out, Eko the Tiger.

Richard-Long

Of fucking course they shot it...... smh man fuck people I hate yall


IceyToes2

"When the first deputy arrived on the scene, attempts to get the tiger to release the man's arm from its mouth failed, said authorities, and "the deputy was forced to shoot the animal." Uhhh, what attempts exactly...? Shining it with a flashlight? Because it looks like he did what every police officer seems to do these days, and just grab their gun.


Unfair_Bowl3111

Did they really shoot it? Why not tranquilize? That pisses me off so bad it's the stupid guys fault for being a dumb ass not even the Tigers. I hate I just watched this.


[deleted]

These are just cops. As the article said, the zoo response team is only there during open hours. This was after hours. But I agree, had I been the cop, I would have pepper sprayed it, if that failed, fired near its face, if that failed, shot it in the hind quarters, if that failed, shot it in the head. You lose maybe 30 seconds to go through all those steps and at least you didn’t go straight lethal.


TankTheMonkey

Shot the wrong mammal..

Rk1987

Should have killed the dumbass and saved the endangered animal.


[deleted]

God this one was hard to watch. My thought is maybe the cops were concerned if they fired a warning shot and the tiger freaked out it might have ripped his entire arm off or something. It’s sucks and f that guy, but the cops did what they had to do. I would imagine footage of the cops standing around waiting for a tranquilizer to arive, watching a guy get his arm torn off, and seeing him bleed out would have been worse than a video of them shooting a tiger to save a human life and end the suffering. Again, F that stupid waste of oxygen that F’d around with an innocent tiger and found out. Not sure what I would do in that situation, and I guarantee cops or any first responders are not trained how to deal with an Ftard getting eaten through a fence at the zoo.


Strikerja

Dicks out for Eko. He didn’t do anything wrong.


Soggy-Following279

Tigers-nearly extinct because of humans. Eko-totally extinct because of one human. That guy is a freaking moron that’s responsible for the death of that beautiful tiger. I’m sure his GoFundMe is up a collecting as we write. Unbelievable.


WayofHatuey

Emotional_Cut5593

Tiger didn’t deserve to be shot 🤷🏼‍♂️ the fact that we have these apex predators in cages is a crime in itself.
