I am absolutely relieved to hear this news.
The five year old tiger involved in yesterday’s tragic incident at Yorkshire Wildlife Park is alive and will not be euthanised.
It would have been utterly disgusting to see this beautiful animal put down simply for doing what tigers naturally do.
The loss of a human life is absolutely tragic, and nothing will change that.
But that tragedy should never have resulted in an innocent tiger losing its life too.
This is absolutely the right decision, and I'm delighted common sense has prevailed.
I've seen many people saying the tiger at Yorkshire Wildlife Park should have been shot when the man entered its enclosure.
I couldn't disagree more.
From the footage I've seen, it looks extremely difficult to even get into that enclosure in the first place.
And from what I've heard, the staff did an incredible job reacting as quickly as they did, while showing restraint and avoiding killing an innocent tiger.
These are apex predators. They are extremely dangerous animals that will naturally attack humans when confronted in their territory.
Hopefully this magnificent animal isn't put down in the aftermath of this tragedy.
The tiger did nothing wrong.
Who knows why he did that, he could have been suffering from mental health or he had special needs! I hope the tiger is okay at least! It shouldn’t be put down for acting on instincts.

@BsSpin I feel for the family, but he did jump in the enclosure! Who knows why! I just hope the tiger doesn’t get put down for it! It’s their instinct to attack!

I can understand why certain people are single! Sometimes they’re the toxic ones!! It’s why I left my relationship, toxic and controlling, and he belittled me. Abuse doesn’t mean physically, but it can be emotionally. Domestic abuse is no joke! Hope they know it’s not their fault
I absolutely love the traitors, some people are so good at it then there’s that one person who looks and acts like a traitor. You can’t trust anyone! But it is hilarious to watch.
