Ochopee, Fla. — A tiger mauled a worker Tuesday afternoon at a Florida airboat attraction, officials said.

The attack occurred at Wooten's Everglades Airboat Tours in Ochopee, according to the Collier County Sheriff's Office. Wooten's website says the attraction includes an animal sanctuary that features two tigers, two lions, otters, turtles, crocodiles and alligators.

A caretaker was feeding a tiger in its enclosure when another worker who wasn't authorized to be with the tiger entered the enclosure, deputies said. The tiger attacked the 50-year-old man and caused injuries to both of his arms, officials said.

I was talking to my aunt the other day and she mentioned some funny "close call" moments her cat had recently. The other week it freaked out and panicked and ran to the window one evening. Had a WTF moment. Aunt didn't see anything outside of note, and went back and checked the security camera & a coyote was patrolling the front street and went around the corner. Residential area a few minutes from a park. Another time the cat was outside on the back deck chilling and froze and looked up. There was a raccoon on the nearby roof quietly sizing them up. A quick jump down for a light snack, lol.

I deal with coons on the regular. They climb out of a neighborhood drainage culvert and be trying to open my trash cans. My wife won't even take the trash out anymore because occasionally they hang around and seem to be waiting for us to come open it for them. I also see cyotes on occasion, but they come and go. In fact, I haven't see one in over a year.

It's funny - I haven't seen many raccoons in awhile. Used to see them all the time in the old neighborhood and near work. Aunt sees them all the time and her place is about 10 mins from my job.

Having coyotes in the neighborhood will result in fewer racoon. A lady that lives not far from me has a fox with a litter of 3 living under her shed. She said the chipmunks and squirrels have near all disappear.
