On Animal Attacks

I don't understand why everybody is an animal conservationist until that particular animal starts attacking people. "Tatiana" the tiger was in the San Francisco Zoo for the sole purpose of mating with a male Siberian Tiger. That way the zoo makes more money when they have a shiny new tiger cub to show off. But it looks like it was strike-three-you're-out for Tatiana. And now all the news articles quote little factoids about how there are more than 600 of these Siberian tigers in the wilds. Like there are too many of them now. I guess that's natural selection. Make zoo's money and you live.
