The Toronto Zoo - Part One


Mom and I went to the Toronto Zoo yesterday. When we got home we saw the news story and YouTube clip below about a woman who had jumped down by the Tiger enclosure to retrieve a hat.

This person is an idiot. I don't care about the person or their safety, but I do care about the Tiger.  It could have been injured.  Worse, if it had acted as nature intended and the woman got hurt, the Tiger most likely would have had to pay with its life.

Thank goodness I did not see this as I don't think I'd have been able to not reprimand the woman.

When we left to Zoo we agreed that as wonderful as it was to see the Panda cubs, being there was heartbreaking.

As much as I understand all the good Zoos do for breeding and education of endangered species, the animals should not be in those cages/enclosures.



This is the Tiger and the woman jumped down right by the tree above my head to the right.
The woman jumped down in front of this fence about 4 feet left of where I took this photo.
