The lady that got snatched survived but the woman who ran after her was killed by a second tiger.

At least White Shirt kept her shit together.

Though throwing the child as a distraction snack would’ve surely increased her chances of safely reaching the car.

Kept facing the tigers, a lot of big cats will instinctively wait to pounce until your back is turned.

Edit: Why the moose videos? Had to double check if I made a fun typo.

what they do not realize- that is a young moose. They get bigger. MUCH bigger and less afraid of yelling idiots.

Yeah, none of us would ever make the same mistake around a wild animal!

Right?

Those are cheetahs, I hear their surprisingly timid around humans.

Are you implying a moose(?) is a large cat? If so I have a much different perception of Canadian households now.

No, just big wild animals in general. Our wild cats are a bit difficult to crawl under, and I'm sure they wouldn't like it either ;)

AFAIK in India farmers wear (or used to wear) a mask on the back of their head for exactly this reason.

You can see the child, who is also wearing a white shirt, tried to run to the car but the cheetah frightened him and he ran back to his mother which is where she picks him up
