Guide

Recently, a tiger injury incident occurred in badaling Wildlife Park in Yanqing County, Beijing, and a zoo employee was bitten by three Bengal tigers and killed on the spot.

On August 31, the staff of the Marketing Department of Badaling Wildlife Park said that the park is currently doing family pacification work. The animals in the beast area are wild, and the park has clear regulations, and all personnel cannot open the car window when entering the beast area and are strictly prohibited from getting off the car. As for whether the patrolman got out of the car without authorization and the specific reason for the death, the staff said that at present, the public security and safety supervision have been involved, and the accident is under investigation. As for the question of which tiger injured people, the staff said that the accident is under investigation and cannot be conclusively determined for the time being. Yesterday afternoon, the reporter learned from the Yanqing police that the accident is still under investigation.

Expert: Generally, there is no special taming of injured tigers

Some netizens believe that for tigers after injuring people, whether measures should be taken to isolate or kill, in this regard, Professor Jiang Zhigang, a researcher at the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a doctoral supervisor, told the Beiqing Daily reporter that tigers with a history of injury are indeed more dangerous than other tigers, but this does not mean that they must be treated specially.

Professor Jiang explained that even domesticated tigers have natural animal nature, and even the trainers will have unexpected situations when performing, and no one can accurately predict which tiger will suddenly be aggressive. "Tigers are not as socially conscious as people, and even if they take some taming measures after hurting people, they will not have an effect, so they generally do not take special measures against tigers that hurt people after such things occur." Professor Jiang said. Professor Jiang suggested that because such zoos have relevant rules and regulations, whether it is zoo staff or tourists, as long as they follow the relevant systems when working and visiting, they can avoid similar tragedies.

Although the safety of zoos has been concerned for many years, in 2013, there were still repeated incidents of animals injuring people in zoos across the country. It is true that animals are innocent, but while we vigorously advocate the protection of animals, in the face of repeated occurrences of zoo massacres, should relevant departments and units conduct deeper reflection?

Shanghai Zoo

Tiger bites keeper The tiger cage does not install cameras as required

On December 17, at the Shanghai Zoo breeding farm in Shanghai's Changning District, a keeper was killed by a South China tiger while cleaning a tiger cage.

Tu, chief of the animal breeding department of Shanghai Zoo, confirmed that the master surnamed Zhou, who was unfortunately bitten to death, worked in Shanghai Zoo for nearly 30 years and was a technician with rich experience. According to the Shanghai Zoo, the keeper was cleaning the tiger house at the time of the incident.

Chief Tu revealed that because the feeding cage of the incident was about to be dismantled, surveillance cameras were not installed in accordance with the regulations, so it was impossible to record the incident at the time of the incident.

It is reported that the tiger house of the incident is in the shape of a glyph, a total of three tiger houses, two small tiger houses are on the left and right sides, each about 16 square meters, in front of which there is an activity area of more than 20 square meters. Master Zhou has many years of breeding experience and has never made a mistake, but he may have forgotten to close the hanging door that day, and it was this negligence in operation that led to the tragedy.

Guangxi Zoo

Elephants get angry and roll up the keeper and stomp on them

At about 4 p.m. on September 28, a male elephant at the Liuzhou Zoo suddenly made an aggressive move, rolling the keeper high with his nose and then trampling the keeper's ankle. It is understood that the "accident" elephant has just come to Liuzhou for more than 20 days. At the time of the incident, keepers were sweeping the ground in the elephant house.

Henan Zoo

The brown bear slapped the keeper down and dragged him into the bedroom and ate half of his body

When the keeper fed a brown bear that had been in the park for 7 years, he unfortunately died under the claws of an "old friend" who knew each other, and on the afternoon of June 17, such a tragedy occurred at the Xinmi City Zoo. Subsequently, tigers, wolves, lions and other beasts raised in the park were transferred to the Zhengzhou Zoo along with the brown bears that caused the accident.

Officials said the accident was caused by the breeder's careless operation, and the failure to drive the brown bear into the inner chamber during feeding was the main cause of the tragedy.

Global perspective: Safety management work must be grasped from the source of ideas and prevent problems before they occur

Although the animals in the zoo are raised by humans, they are beasts after all, and the animality in their potential blood is not so fast-fading, and even artificially bred beasts of prey have the potential to be wild, and if they encounter strong external stimuli, they will burst into injury.

Safety management work is an important task that must be unremittingly grasped in the operation of enterprises, and it must be treated with a high sense of responsibility. Especially for zoo managers, it is impossible to relax for a moment. There is a saying in the zoo world: "Managing a zoo is like sitting on a crater every day", which vividly describes the importance of safety management.
