BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A U.S. soldier shot dead a rare Bengal tiger at
Baghdad zoo after the animal injured another soldier who was trying to
feed it through the cage bars, the zoo's manager said on Saturday.
Adil Salman Mousa told Reuters a group of U.S. soldiers were having a
party in the zoo on Thursday night after it had closed.
"Someone was trying to feed the tigers," he said. "The tiger bit his
finger off and clawed his arm. So his colleague took a gun and shot
the tiger."
The night watchman said the soldiers had arrived in military vehicles
but were casually dressed and were drinking beer.
A U.S. military spokesman confirmed that a member of the coalition
forces shot and killed a tiger but gave no further details.
At the tiger's cage, now empty, pools of blood showed that the soldier
passed through a first cage intended only for keepers and stood next
to the inner cage's narrow bars.
Mousa said U.S. officials came to see him on Friday to discuss the
incident.
The tiger was one of two in the zoo, once the largest in the Middle
East but today a decrepit collection of dirty cages and sad-looking
animals.
In April, U.S. soldiers killed four lions that had escaped from the
zoo. Hundreds of other animals were stolen or let loose by looters in
the aftermath of the U.S. invasion of the Iraqi capital.

That's just the kind of thing I'd expect from a septic trooper. What a
bastard!

Another demonstration of low troop moral and lack of discipline.

no - I'm not condoning any of this. I just find it ironic how this
government criticised the Iraqi army for shooting up the Kuwati zoo and
if US troops are now doing the same thing in the Iraqi zoo, this seems
to show how hypocritical some American apologists can be. what's coming
and going around is culpability.

"Endangered species"?

RH: The animals are the ones outside the cages. Produced by a system
of govt and a culture where law, justice, ethics, morality, etc, have
all been corrupted, that is, if they had been anywhere as high as
their TV sitcoms seem to portray.
