A tiger was shot and eventually died at a zoo in Naples, Florida, after attacking a worker who allegedly entered “an unauthorized area” near its enclosure and reportedly attempted to feed or pet the animal on Wednesday evening, officials said.

Sumatran tigers are pictured before the play with leftover Christmas trees in a Tierpark Zoo in Germany.

According to a post on the Collier County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page, the man, who is a member of a third-party cleaning service contracted by the Naples Zoo, suffered serious injuries and was taken to a hospital after the tiger grabbed his arm and pulled it into the enclosure through the fencing.

The first deputy on scene kicked the enclosure and tried to get the tiger to release the man’s arm from its mouth, but the deputy was forced to shoot the animal, the statement read. The Naples Zoo later told Reuters TV that the eight-year-old Malayan tiger named “Eko” died after the incident. On its official web page, the zoo says Eko had been a resident there since December 2019 after being moved from the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle.

Eventually died. How long did it take? Did they not even do the job properly? But they run a zoo?!?

Once again the animal is getting punished for a human error

A beautiful and majestic animal gets killed as a result of a dumb human doing something that he shouldn't? And people are ok with this? Can't help but wonder, who are the real animals here? Disgraceful When you stick your finger in a fire growing up did y'all put the fire out?
