Apparently after the recent fatal tiger attack on Christmas at the SF zoo, the zoo put up signs saying to respect the animals. Tatiana (the tiger who killed the teenager) wasn't the only animal harassed that day. There was an account of rocks being thrown at lions about an hour before, for instance, and several more.

And yet, the zoo can't really do the thing that would be most effective for its expense and difficulty. They can't put pictures of the mauled teenager *on* the "respect the animals" signs.

Yeah, they should show the mauled kids. I'm sorry, but I think that kids who decide animal cruelty is fun should get some real life experience as to why that ain't so. The only thing I was sad for was that they shot the tiger, who was just behaving appropriately for a tiger.
