Summer of Fear 2009: The Jaguar

Ok, I missed this on in the paper but it was pointed out to me by Stacey. A zoo keeper at the Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo was attacked by a Jaguar this week. Sounds like a pretty bad attack, according to Wikipedia* Jaguars attack by trying to punch through the target’s skull, which I imagine one would want to avoid. I suspect this attack was a case of someone making a mistake rather than true Summer of Fear fodder, but hey, its a Jaguar attack what more does it really need to be.

*Wikipedia is a useful first check, not a reference. Kids repeat that one after me.

    The door between the inside and outside sections of the enclosure was secured properly, it’s just that the cat was on the wrong side of it. Ouch!
