Although an investigation is still ongoing, the park made a statement on their website hoping to cover the questions put to them. They said:We have received a number of enquiries from members of the public asking about the tiger following last weeks incident.

“After extensive consultation with the staff at the zoo, we have decided not to put down the tiger. This decision has been fully supported by Rosa’s family.”Management at the zoo did say that if after the investigation they are given “regulatory or professional guidance” contrary to the decision they have made, they would review their position. With another accident involving a wild animal homed at a zoo, the argument suggesting that zoos can exploit animals has come to the fore on social media.
Yo, can we ban zoos already or what?
