I guess they don't like being in the zoo very much after all...
2 people killed in Indian zoos
HYDERABAD, India (AP) - A tiger killed a teen-ager who jumped over
the wall of a safari park to retrieve his kite in southern Andhra
Pradesh state, the park curator said Wednesday. Mohammed Khaja, 18,
scaled the 16-foot wall of the Nehru Zoological Park on Tuesday to
get his kite out of a tree, said curator K.N. Bannerji. The tiger
spotted Khaja immediately, pounced on him and dragged him 200 yards
into the bushes in the sprawling park in Hyderabad, the state
capital. In the northern city of Chandigarh, Bittu Singh, 25, was
killed when he climbed over a boundary wall and tried to shake hands
with a bear at the local zoo, said police. See
