Was it that freaky Magic Box thing they did? If so, that's the same one I saw!

YES!

I saw that special too. It's a beautiful ranch.

I heard on the radio that their show at the Mirage has officially been cancelled and all of the workers on the show have been terminated with a small severance package.

I've seen the ' home ' of these tigers.. The pin is smaller than a small house. Its sad. In a way, wouldn't you do the same?

I would.

CEO, do you really think they live there?? Those are only on 'display'! They live supposedly with them, in a huge estate and treated better than anyone! :animwink:

Here's an update of what supposedly happened at the "attack". Read the article and you'll understand the quotes.

Wow! Thanks for the link! It sounds like nothing too bad will happen with the tiger. Thanks goodness!

Thank you Scott! I was wondering how he was doing.
Stupid woman! Can´t she just behave and 'do not touch'????!

I hope he recovers completely and soon!

My coworker told me on Tuesday that she was listening to a local radio station, and a woman called who had been at the show when this all happened. The way the woman described it was exactly what is said in that article. I didn't want to say anything until I had something more credible than a radio morning show, but now I am seeing this story all over the place. It makes complete sense to me. I hope Roy's condition continues to improve.

From what I understand, Roy is off of the Ventilator, and doing better! He suffered a small stroke after the attack, which makes recovery quite a bit more difficult. From what I am to understand, Roy had stumbled onstage, and the tiger thiught he was hurt or in trouble, and did what any tiger would do for their own, he attempted to get him off of the stage and to safety. I am sure nothing will happen to this cat, which was just doing what is instinctual.
These 2 gentlemen have been working for decades with I believe the Indian government, to help raise and repopulate the White tigers, which were rare and almost extinct. These cats have the best care, and loving home that ANY animal could wish for! Roy is indeed a wonderful, caring and loving person, who treats his animals better than some people treat their own children!
I wish him a speedy recovery! And God bless them both!
