5 Year old mauled by lion

On Sunday a five year old girl was mauled by a lion. She has received reconstructive surgery to her face. She and her parents are obviously traumatized by this. Now why would any parent let their child, let alone a five year old go near a lion cage. Hello it is not your average garden cat.

What part of high school Biology did you not grasp about animals. This is a predator not a cuddly kitty. The sad thing is they will probably call for the destruction of the animal. Why is it when we make a mistake something else gets the blame. Lets Face It, Unless you have a lion tamers hat with a flashing lion tamer sign on it you are not qualified. The parents are to blame here not the lion. When at parks of this nature keep an eye on your children, they are your responsibility not any one else's.
