Tigers Kill Man Who Stuck His Arm Into Zoo Cage in Northeastern India
Wednesday, December 19, 2007

GAUHATI, India —

Two tigers killed a man who stuck his arm into their enclosure in northeastern India on Wednesday, ripping off his arm as his family and dozens of visitors looked on, zoo officials said.

The man, identified as 50-year-old Jayaprakash Bezbaruah, avoided zoo safety precautions in an apparent attempt to photograph the two adult Bengal tigers up close, said Gauhati zoo warden Narayan Mahanta.

"The man ignored warnings from keepers, crossed the first barrier and stretched his hand into the enclosure that housed a male and a female tiger before the animals grabbed his limb and tore it apart at the shoulder," he said.

Bezbaruah was rushed to a local hospital but died of blood loss, said Mahanta.

Bezbaruah, a government official from a nearby town, had been visiting the zoo with his wife and two children.

"I have never encountered such a bizarre incident in my 11 years as a wildlife official. It was shocking," Mahanta said.

I think everyone has learned that even trained tigers like to eat people's faces from Sigfried and Roy...

why fuck with 2 wild tigers? He wanted to photograph them up close? THAT'S WHAT FUCKING ZOOM IS FOR!

Darwinism in full effect...

ronmcdon · 12-19-2007, 09:31 AM

tragic, but not entirely undeserving. I hope they don't put the tigers to sleep b/c of this.

nah man tigers are one of the few big cats that will hunt and eat humans for food even when they arent starving or protecting....most other cats stay away from people and wont get aggressive unless provoked....but to a tiger you might as well be a gazelle or something

jrocslider · 12-19-2007, 09:55 AM

they dont have safety precautions because they look nice hangin in front of the tigers cage

*fliprayzin240sx* · 12-19-2007, 09:57 AM

Hmm...now that hes dead, can they toss the rest of his body into the cage so the tigers can finish their meal???

murda-c · 12-19-2007, 10:03 AM

it's not darwinism in effect if he already has kids.

azndoc · 12-19-2007, 10:23 AM

**Note to self, do no stick arm inside tiger's cage**

Seriously, screw him. He's an idiot who deserves to die if he does something so stupid with his wife and kids in tow.

"Here we have an amazing species of mammals; the tiger. By sticking my hand into this cage, I am going to see if this animal shows aggressive behaviors.....

....I guess that was a bad idea"

How dumb do you have to be?..

"Ooooooh, pretty kitty. Me want picture. Me go closer."
This guy deserved it.

PoorMans180SX · 12-19-2007, 01:03 PM

Maybe they were hungry.

Seriously how much closer is an arm length for a picture?

Brian · 12-19-2007, 01:06 PM

You know..... I bet it sucks REAL bad to get killed by an animal like that.

Probably rips your arm off like it is held on by thread.

jesus christ... I can't imagine the pain.

LOL thats a sad death.

eastcoastS14 · 12-19-2007, 01:42 PM

^^ I doubt you'd feel it....it would probably be like a stabbing pain and then youd just go into shock pretty quick...your body has its own pain killers that would go to work extremely fast
