The official said on Tuesday that a white tiger attacked and killed the southern Japanese zoo.

A local police officer said to AFP, a zookeeper was found bleeding in the cage. "The man was taken to the hospital and he was declared dead.

The attacks took place at Hirakawa Zoo in Kagoshima City in the south on Monday night.

According to media reports, 40-year-old Kose Akira was bleeding from his neck.

The zoo said that the tiger was sedated with a sedative gun and the rescue team and the police rushed to the scene after the attack.

This is not the only event of that kind. Early this year, a Florida keeper was hit by a fatal tiger. The captured large cat dies on average one person every year, hurting more people in the United States. Since they are short-lived and involve direct contact with wild animals, the circus has a higher risk. Despite these attacks, the government reports that the dangerous animals of Ringling and Universeul are repeatedly blocked. The tiger fled from UniverSoul over and over and Ringling Tiger went to the parking lot in Chicago and attacked the hospitalized operator seriously injured his neck and side.

Wild tigers not exposed to human beings in advance will actively avoid interaction with humans. However, compared to other wild mammals, tigers cause more human death through direct attack. Occasionally, attacks are initiated as tigers are beaten after injuries. For example, when a person was surprised by a tiger, or when he was inadvertently surprised between a mother and a young man, or when a postman got on a tiger, as in rural areas of India, It may be caused by mistake I was riding a bicycle to see him. Occasionally, Tiger considers people as prey. This type of attack is most common in areas where population growth, logging and agriculture pressure pressure on the tiger habitat and reduce wild food. Most of the cannibal tigers are old, their teeth are missing and they can not catch favorite prey. For example, in Chigwat Tiger found in Nepal and India, there are two broken dogs.
