Demand an investigation and change!
The Issue
This petition will go to Governor Ron DeSantis, Marco Rubio, and the departments that oversee zoos in the US: the USDA, Florida Fish and Game, and the HHS (which inspects zoo's based on Animal Welfare Act).
THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!!
People need to be held accountable! Let's do it!
1) There needs to be an investigation. The tiger should not have been killed.
2) We need answers from the Naples Zoo.
3) We need a plan of action detailing how this will never happen again
4) We need some people replaced, at the zoo and Collier County Police.
5) Governor Ron DeSantis and Sen. Marco Rubio need to address this.
Here is the story:
Critically endangered tiger fatally shot at Florida zoo after biting man’s arm.
Authorities in the US have shot and killed a critically endangered tiger after it bit the arm of a man who entered an unauthorized area of the tiger’s enclosure in a Florida zoo.
The man, who is in his 20s and worked for an external cleaning service at the Naples zoo in Florida, suffered serious injuries after an eight-year old Malayan tiger named Eko bit him, authorities said on Wednesday.
“Initial reports indicate that the tiger grabbed the man’s arm and pulled it into the enclosure after the man traversed an initial fence barrier and put his arm through the fencing of the tiger enclosure,” the statement said.
The attack, which happened after the zoo had closed for the day, prompted deputies to respond to the scene. The first deputy kicked the enclosure and attempted to get the tiger to release the man’s arm from its mouth. The deputy was eventually “forced to shoot the animal”.
