(Raw Video) White tiger kills student at Delhi Zoo:
How could this student end up there? He must have been very careless or stupid.
The Delhi Zoo says the student was mentally ill. Also other videos suggest the tiger was actually saving the student from stones thrown from above by grabbing his neck but the tiger has 4-inch canine teeth so this would have killed him. The tiger did not eat any part of the student.
This incident reminds of two events in the US. Teenagers in the Chicago Zoo were taunting or ragging the tiger which charged and jumped 12 twelve feet and I think killed one of the kids.
The second incident was when show biz guys were performing with a lion in Las Vegas, I think, which grabbed one of the brothers by the neck. The animal was not trying to kill the performer but treating him like a baby lion which is how they do by grabbing around the back of the neck. Baby lions or tigers have loose and thick hides so they are not hurt but humans have thin skins. Besides these predators don't have hands or arms to carry anything except their teeth. Lions have 3-inch teeth while tigers have 4-inch teeth.
Seeing the video below on how the tiger killed the crocodile by biting its neck shows that it also kills by biting the neck. So it is not a certainty that the tiger tried to save the student but rather killed him as the student died from suffocation with deep wounds in the throat.
