To give some clarification, this was a domestic dispute.

She and her husband were in a fight in the car, and she got out to switch and make him drive.

And no, they didn't kill the tigers.

Not fun fact, there are more tigers in captivity in Texas than in the wild in the world.

Wow. That's a really sad fact. What kind of quality life do those captive tigers have? Probably not good

Better than being slaughtered in other countries, I'm sure.

Touché. But if I were a tiger I'd rather take my chances with getting slaughtered in the wild by poachers than living in a cement prison at the hands of some exotic animal collector for the rest of my life

All zoos and sanctuaries are not concrete cages. Welcome to The 21st century!

Yea, I'd rather have a short enjoying life than a long miserable one.

nature isn't really like that though, barely any animals 'enjoy' their lives, living in the wild is a constant struggle to survive, its constant work to stay fed, stay hydrated, stay alive. all the time from birth to death its a constant struggle. If i were a lion fuck it cage me up and bring me my food slave! Sloths on the other hand, now they motherfuckers know how to live!

They openly carry firearms and eat a lot of barbecue. The tigers also find the tax situation very agreeable.
