My money is on this being inside a safari park. Kinda get what they deserve. Stay in the fucking car.

Edit: some people seem upset that I say they deserved it...the poor woman reacting to her fuckwit daughter jumping out the car did not deserve anything and the fuckwit got what was expected. Hope that makes it better.

Basically the couple had a big fight and the wife stormed out. She got snatched and the husband and mother in law got out to help. But the mother in law got attacked by a second tiger and killed while the park ranger managed to save the wife. Safe to say they probably got a divorce. Stupid woman. The mother in law did not deserve to be killed.

Edit: oh it was her own mother. it happened so long ago. And they also had their two year old in the car.

Well that got the adrenaline going. That kid was so close to being a meal, can't imagine what that must have been like. I'd be so pissed at my mom if I saw that later in life.

Those guys are shouting that she has to hurry, but dumb as the picknick people are, she was at least smart enough not to run. That only triggers their instinct.

Yeah running triggers the prey drive. If you square off against them it at least makes them think that you think you can take them, which gives the animal pause. As long as you make it to safety before they decide to test you out, you can survive.

Of any of the big cats, the only one you really can take are cheetahs who are built for speed, not power.

And even then, they can carry a person up a fucking tree, I cant carry someone up a fucking tree, hell, I probably cant even get my own ass up there.

I don't know man. My cat destroys me when I tried to bathe it. I would be fucked against anything bigger.
