I grew up there and LOVE that zoo. We were just there in March. They're saying that the teenagers were dangling their feet in the cage after hopping the fence. Stupid kids, don't they realize a tiger isn't just a big stripy kitty kat??

even if they were teasing it, it should not have been able to get out the cage, I mean wow it jumped out!!!! Zoo is liable for a poorly designed cage but the kids definately will make the darwin awards for teasing a big kitty kat.
