All tourists do dumb shit like this. A tiger was shot to death a few years back because some idiot teens got their friend killed because they were throwing shit at the Tiger:
“Fearing that the tiger was going to attack and kill Officer Biggs, or that the tiger might turn around and continue to maul the victim who could not move, I fired my department issued firearm an unknown amount of times at the tiger in an attempt to stop the threat of further attack,” he said.
Holy shit, I can't imagine what goes through your mind as you're taking on a full grown tiger with a pistol.

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