Reality of the wild

I don't want to sound insensitive to the families of the tiger attack. But...I firmly believe these 'boys' taunted the tiger to get a reaction out of her. Well...they got a reaction alright. What were they thinking? Really they weren't thinking! And now 1 of them is dead, a tiger is dead and 2 are wounded. Did they get their kicks that night? It came as a huge price to all involved. Especially to an innocent tiger!
Wild animals are designed to do exactly what this one did, defend themselves! Come on people, you really can't think otherwise can you?
I hate to say that they had it coming but what other conclusion can be drawn here? You can blame the park employees for not being "Johnny on the Spot" but the ultimate blame is on the 'boys.'
The law of nature is that only the strong survive, well with their flawed thinking, they are fortunate to have lived this long!
