Tiger privilege is wild

The Amur tiger, which this one was. Is only about 400-600 left. Maybe less.

Harambe, who was a western lowland gorilla have a population of over 300k

Not saying that makes it right but those are the numbers. Aswell Harambe was in the past and it caused a huge uproar. Do you not think this zoo has learnt from those mistakes?

It wasn't a choice. If the zoo intentionally refused to save a man for the life of a tiger, they would have committed manslaughter. The personnel simply weren't quick enough to reach the man before tragedy occurred.

Not in the slightest. Murder requires the killing of a person.
