Authorities are trying to find the owner of a tiger who was shot dead by police after it wandered into a Georgia neighborhood and attacked a dog.

The tiger was spotted about 6 a.m. Saturday on a highway in an Atlanta suburb, according to the Henry County Police Department. It then ran to a nearby community and toward the back of a house, where it jumped a fence and attacked a dog.

?With the tiger in close proximity to a school bus route in a densely populated area, officers made the decision to put the animal down with gunfire fearing that occupants of the home could be in danger as well as others in the area,? the police department said in a statement

So either someone forgot to secure the enclosure or someone let it out on purpose.

Typical racist asshole response to blame the blacks and/or black culture for a loose tiger in Georgia :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I admit it. I was wrong.

It was the juice who did this.

At first I thought this was about Tiger Woods.

There are more tigers kept as private pets in the state of Texas than there are in the wild.

A while back I watched a documentary about a group that tries to rescue big cats and exotic animals from people who get them as pets then can't handle them. They estimate that there are somewhere between 10,000 and 20,000 big cats being kept as pets in the US.

Clearly, there are a lot of people out there with more money than sense.
