Quote Tiger Bites Off Woman's Arm at Zoo in Montenegro Tuesday, March 13, 2007 PODGORICA, Montenegro — A Siberian tiger at a private zoo in Montenegro bit off an arm of a woman who tried to feed the animal. Slavka Sekulovic, 58, had put her arm into the cage with two Siberian tigers when one of them grabbed it and bit it off, said doctor Zoran Srzentic who admitted the woman at a nearby hospital. Srzentic said that Sekulovic's life is not in danger, though she remained in shock after losing a lot of blood. "The tiger just wouldn't let it go," he added. The tigers were brought into Montenegro last year from Bosnia. The authorities initially had detained three people on suspicion of smuggling the animals — which are considered endangered species — but no formal charges were raised. The owner, Stojan Sekulovic, has claimed the tigers were a present for his private zoo. The article doesn't say whether she worked there or was a visitor to the zoo, but if she works there I'm thinking she's probably considering a career change.

Rebecca 0 #2 March 13, 2007 That reminds me of the Chris Rock bit after Roy's tiger mauled him. "People are saying, 'The tiger just went crazy!' No he didn't! He went Tiger!" you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rock on, Chris Rock! I hope they don't do anything to the tiger. He was doing what tigers do...not his fault. I know better than to reach into a cage with an animal. When I've trapped feral cats, I've been ever so careful handling them for whatever reason. And they're just housecats - not tigers! Good grief.
