Cuddle Fail: Zookeeper An Heros Self in Tiger Cage

Sarah McClay was a zookeeper who liked to pretend to be a kittie kat, and apparently decided to end it all by climbing into the tiger cage where she worked.

From the DailyMail here:

Police investigating the death of a young female zoo keeper who was fatally mauled by a tiger have not ruled out suicide.

Sarah McClay, 24 , was attacked by a Sumatran tiger at the park in Dalton-in-Furness, Cumbria, on Friday afternoon after she went into its enclosure. Bosses at the park say she had no reason to be in the area.

Mr Gill said keepers follow ‘strict protocol’ and would never enter an animal enclosure without first radioing for permission, something Ms McClay, whom he described as ‘very professional’, did not do.

He saw her dragged the length of the enclosure and fired two shots at the animal, but it was too late.
‘You do not have a hope if a tiger gets hold of you,’ he said.

A lot of hippie chicks are getting eaten by lions and tigers these days. A good trend I think.
