Just last week, I read about a man in Chile who infiltrated the lion exhibit.
The man reportedly had a suicide note in his pocket and was shouting about Jesus. He took off his clothes and started taunting the cats as onlookers watched and the lions pounced.
The zoo staff was hesitant to shoot the lions and tried to hose them away first. But, that didn't work. The zoo staff were then forced to shoot the lions dead to save the man (who was gravely injured, but survived).
I read comments by witnesses who thought the zoo staff waited too long to kill the lions, and other comments by outraged animal lovers who thought the zoo staff shot at the wrong target.
