Absolutely yes, assuming no side effects (or minimal ones) and no requirement of injections "down there." 99.999999999999999999999999999% of sperm cause nothing but trouble

It's why animals that have attacked or eaten people are usually put down immediately, no second chances: there is no safe place to keep them. They remain a huge risk to humans in any human-managed environment, much more so than untrained, wild animals. And even if they can be reintroduced into the wild they are still a big risk to humans, because they won't avoid humans in favor of easier pickings like most wild things. Not to mention that, with some more social/intelligent species, other animals may learn by example.

Being really seriously endangered may help this one, if it is thought valuable enough as breeding stock to be worth the risk, but in zoos, nature preserves, etc. all over the world they routinely put down even endangered animals that have attacked humans.
assumiong you know what you are talking about, I have to say this is fucked. The ding dong provoked the tiger. i wonder it that would mitgate? tiger has no history of attacking unprovoked. and there is something inherently wrong with taking an animal ouit of its natural habitat, and putting it on a stage in Vegas so some plastic surgery addicts can feed their jones. Why dont they just skip the middle queens (NTTAWWT) and slaughter the tiger in Asia? It is a wild animal. It does not live in a place where tourons wander the plains. If this is the rule, then they should not be allowed to be removed from their home turf. Or to be bred as fucking entertainment. Bred to preserve the species? Yes. Bred to be pranced around on stage and provoked? No. ESPECIALLy since they are endangered. "Hey, hans, lets taunt this endangered animal by decimating (hi atticus) its dignity in front of hundreds of people from Missouri, and waving things in front of it so that we hope it sits and acts against instinct. t hen if it attacks, we will kill its endangered hide".

this is the stupidest thing I have ever heard of. and the fucking assclowns of this country support it. This is just as sick as a circus, if not sicker bc the aminals are endangered. Wonder where my friends at PETA are on this?

and if they do kill the tiger, DS and PJ, will you be lining up to turn his body into a nice white and black striped fur coat?

I take it, then, that you will be representing Montecore?

Maybe so, but BRC's point is that it would take another ding dong to want to be near that tiger now. It just realized that we're wearing shirts that say "lunch".

Interestingly enough, Salon has an interview up right now with David Quammen and his new book "Monster of God: The Man-Eating Predator in the Jungles of History and the Mind." He argues that we need to be eaten every now and then in order to remember the order of the food chain. http://www.salon.com/books/int/2003/...men/index.html

In defense of Montecore

Peta hasnt gotten to this issue yet apparently, or the website hasnt. But here is a piece on Siegfreak and Roy from earlier. Looks to me the birght lights thing could add to the arugment that the tiger was provoked and would not normally do this kidna thing. especially if he was new to the act.

I guess the good news is that this freak show is shut down for good. Hopefully the animals will be put in the proper sanctuaries and will not be treated as the fucking entertainment anymore. MAybe its just a blessing in disguise. Oh, and what comes around goes around.

from peta. orgSIEGFRIED & ROY
Las Vegas, Nevada
The only magic trick that PETA would like to see Siegfried & Roy perform is to make animals disappear from their act. Animals used as stage props are subjected to loud music, bright lights, mishandling, and other frightening aspects of an alien environment.

Gilda, a solitary elephant used in Siegfried & Roy’s casino act, is deprived of a female elephant’s most basic need: the companionship of other elephants. The duo has refused PETA’s requests to send Gilda to the Elephant Sanctuary, where she could live the remainder of her life in peace and enjoy the company of other elephants.

Siegfried & Roy promote the breeding of white tigers, an abnormal color variation of Bengal tigers. All captive white tigers are inbred, and some suffer serious congenital defects. In an attack that occurred before horrified tourists at Siegfried & Roy’s compound, a male tiger grabbed a female tiger by the throat and slowly choked her to death. According to a tourist who witnessed the incident, the male tiger had a stranglehold on the female’s neck for at least 20 minutes, and “nobody did anything ... no animal trainer was on hand” to intervene.

No, it did not, bc all it did was wound the neck. It did not eat the freak. It might have, given the chance, but it did not. So it doesnt know we are lunch yet.

I should represent this tiger.

I was just thinking about the inbred thing. So, when our fine zoos are trying to breed endangered species, are we only gong to end up with the inbred version that is prone to congential problems?
