  • Thats the chance you take if you go in with them. Dalu knew this and rescued another keeper from the same tiger a few mths before it got him. Too many animals. Too much breeding, and too many bosses. Craig should have stayed small and exclusive. Too many bored cats. An accident waiting to happen and a chance you take to work so closely with large bored preditors. And it will happen again somewhere, but no threat to public, so ok. Not fare to cats. Craig MUST stop breeding when he gets back.

  • I puked when they said the animal had been shot. WHY WHY OH WHY cause you caged it up and then it acted normal with it's instinct. Their are only 90 left in the world. Ever hear of tranquilizers or bear spray. I hate people who justify murdering an animal for no reason. I feel bad for that man but that doesn't justify murdering the tiger. I feel shame for the way people take whatever they please.2012 marks the beginning of a new world revolution known as take your lives back. lol ya what a joke

  • wernt even the lions fault anyway, craig buches cunt of a mother took over and they got all angry

  • i guess he is now tiger poo

  • animal shot for humans own stupididy

  • The man shouldent be in there with the animals

  • It's Steve Martin and John McCain...lol

  • A crime scene? Really?

    Not to be disrespecting Dalu's memory, but that is ridiculous. It is a sad but natural thing, and is only made more likely when you trap an animal like that in an enclosure and go in with it.

    RIP Dalu

    RIP Abu

  • the best thing u can do is never go to the zoo

  • This is so stupid people put them in cages and sometimes there are people stupid enough to get killed but then they still kill the Lion or tiger its stupid

  • Really huge cats, housed in such small facilities is a big no no.

  • Comment removed

  • Dala was a dumb ass. Craig told them NOT to go in with the White tigers. I mean, come on! It's a big ass TIGER!!! They eat animals bigger than humans! it's in their nature. So, don't fuck with a big killing machine. Now, cos of his stupidity, they put a beautiful, rare animal down. Makes me sick, stupid spear chucking motherfucker! Damn him and Craig Busch's slut mother who fired him cos her greedy ass wasn't getting paid. I loved that show and my kids learnt a lot from it. Craig is the man and

  • why keep them in zoos then .

  • @c4neckbrace i'm sorry about being dyslexic. but again the word Probably makes your question in-valid. it means i don't know but theres is a likely hood. This is because the white tiger gene is a resesive one. so most captive tigers are inbred. there is a percentage chance that he wasn't but there is a high one that he is. No i don't have EVIDENCE that the poor animal in question wasn't or was inbred all i'm saying is that it may not have been his fault.

  • @c4neckbrace I'm not say that alll tigers and lions and bears are inbread. so why don't you read the post again. and i also wasn't being mean so i don't deserve to be treated disrespectful. i was only sticking up for the tiger and the person that was killed. what increases the chance of an attack is because the gene pool is getting smaller and smaller and smaller meaning more of an impact on mental health. Yes animals can have mental health problems.

  • is any smart?

  • why the fuck the shot the animal..... it makes no sense; it's not like the damn thing knows that killing is a sin!

  • Abu only attacked because he was probably inbred. the signs where there after the attack. I bet you after he did it he cuffed and whimpered back to his normal self. this was not his fault.

    Most inbred animals become aggressive threw no fault of this own. and unfortunately most wight tigers are inbred. An insensate like this has happened before in history and again the tiger was just like Abu. The tiger was named Jupiter and was owned by the Cat Dancers group.

  • y the fuck was it shot

  • they shot the animal just because it acted like an animal :/

  • still though i watched lion man and dont understand why abu wud kill him, he was such a nice tiger in the program and the behind the scenes

  • there are tigers cos it is craig buschs lion and tiger park

  • i just have one question. WHY THE FUCK IS THERE TIGERS IN NEW ZEALAND??

  • The tiger got shot for attacking??

    Why the f**k aren't you shot for existing you morons??

    You're totally discusting ..

  • WTF why would you kill the tiger, meat are their food, people are meat!! I'm sorry for the guys death but seriously, if your with something that eats meat and has been cooped up in a cage then it's bound to happen!!!!!

  • @Clowsie95 I think the same, but it is a public danger if he is released. We eat meat, so are we allowed to eat tigers?

  • @Gazuntiteable Apart from the fact that we don't eat tiger meat.. and it's not a public danger because the tiger was in the cage and the man went in there so it was his fault really!

  • @Clowsie95 You know you kind of bit yourself in the arse right there.

    Did you not read what I just wrote? If he was to be released into the wild, he could of had the taste for human flesh.

    And by the way: People do happen to eat Tiger Meat. It's against the law, but people do. That goes the same for little tiger.

  • First off I would like to send out my condolences to Dalu's friends and family. My heart goes out to you! But what I don't understand is why they would put the cat down??? If Craig was there this this wouldn't have happened!!

  • Pretty sure the poor tiger was shot so that the people could get to the injured/dead man. Quite frankly, I knew this would happen eventually at Zion. If you think you can personally handle big cats every day without ever getting seriously injured or killed, then you're not an expert. Was any of this fair? No. How could it be prevented? Never assume you can handle wild animals, no matter how tame they are! Don't enter their enclosures. Never allow them to become used to people.

  • animals not able to use their brains as humans can do.

  • Why the fuck did they kill the tiger for being a wild animal and should be kept in it's habitat

  • they shooot a tiger for doing something i dont know INSTICT!.......what is wrong w/ you you ahould be ashamed of yourselves really.......this cruel world.......god.....

  • Why did they shoot the tiger??? For being a tiger?

  • THATS WHAT THESE ANIMALS DO, WHY THE HELL KILL THE CAT...........STUPID FUCKS

  • in other words : WE ARE JUST MEAT FOR THEM !!!!!

  • How the HELL WAS IT THE TIGERS FAULT !

  • why the hell they kill the tiger they could not at least sadate it?

  • Why do they blame Craig for this? wasent dalu told NOT to go into the tiger cages unless he was around? He said countless times they are very unpredictable animals.

    Like the Ep when Craig fell over in a tiger cage and he said he "felt teeth oh his face" yet he did not blame the tiger. He knew it was his fault for not being more careful.

    It was partly Dalu's fault for going into the cage with Craig not there its a mistake that got him killed.

    R.I.P Dalu

  • WHY THEY KILL THE TIGER..MAN

  • yey don't fucking mess with a hungary animal!!!

  • just as we eat animal as food they also, they eat us as food!

  • Why the fuck did they shoot the animal and what's worse is it's on the border of being extinct. The animal was probably frustrated because there was another animal on it's territory and it is a born killer. If your gonna get into the same cage as a tiger then expect a fight fgs I thought the zoo were supposed to be protecting the animals not fucking shooting them

  • did he died

  • Hideous, dirty lowlives! Why didn't you shoot your mother in her womb, then your yourselves, untermenschen! Poor animal…

  • @morganj1997 if I am not mistaken the boss Craig was not working for the wildlife park due to a fall out with his mum. Put it this way if you know and take the risk to do the job then how can you shoot a tiger for doing what it's supposed to do.

  • the beast *responsible* for the mauling has been shot.

    ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

  • @BlueSta1n These are apparently boers. You know, the pariahs of The Netherlands sent to Africa a few centuries ago? The scumbags responsible primitive enough to make money out of "breeding" animals to be shot? I'm disgusted, but, alas, not particularly surprised.

  • @BlueSta1n No mate are you kidding me! Just what the f+++ are they supposed to do to get the guy out of there or do they just leave him for food and bollocks to the poor guys relatives Pillock!!! Even in the wild once a tiger has killed a human they are hunted and shot as they are far too dangerous after. Why people like you think an animal life is more or less important than a human life just beats the hell out of me.

  • @Biffo1262

    Wisen-up.

    They need to NOT CAGE THOSE ANIMALS. They need to LEAVE THEM ALONE.

    Or else, SHIT HAPPENS.

  • :(

  • i mean the tiger

  • why do they what to kill the lion

  • Bad for the Tiger. When these big cats in captivity attack people, it is the person's fault. The Tiger was doing what comes naturally. They are wild animals! Play with fire and you are going to get burned. Hello, people! How about the human species stops breeding, gives back the big cats habitat and let them all live as they should in the wild!

  • They should have put the tiger back in the wild instead of killing it. its cant kill humans in the wild. its a tiger it was doing what comes naturally

  • how the hell can you shoot an animal for being hungry in captivity? it was his fault for getting to close!!! they should shoot the boss for sending him to clean the cage instead!!!!!!

  • how the hell can you shoot an animal for being hungry in captivity? it was his fault for getting to close!!! they should shoot the boss for sending him to clean the cage! instead!!!!!!

  • Dalu was the best cat handler way better than craig

  • craig was shit at handling, dalu was the best

  • his mother patricia

    she made it even harder by putting him on court

    what a shame

  • Well at least someone will have a nice rug.

  • they fucking killed the tiger?

    are they fucking insane?

    it's a tiger, what the fuck is it supposed to do.. it's even one of the most fucking endangered species, not that that's the main thing, it just makes it worse

  • stupid people in the cage with a tiger...

    idiots think that "they are one with the tiger" and they "are the tigers friend"

    derp herp glad they are dead

  • Why shoot it? Sell it there worth a few grand

  • boo bloody hoo for the supposed witnesses, the real victim here is the poor tiger, it got shot for doing what is natural to it, the daft keeper was told not to go into the cage without craig and because he didnt listen or have the sense to lock the tigers out he lost his life and a beautiful rare tiger has been shot. Why did the tiger have to pay for a humans mistakes? Craig is trying to preserve these amazing animals and because some guy got careless a tiger is now dead. but thts just my view.

  • @mjsminnieprincess White Tigers are the result of a genetic mutation, they are incredibly inbred &serve no conservation purpose.Craig has removed cubs for hand feeding even when the mother was willing to rear them,these animals are then rendered useless for conservation because of this. The only thing Craig busch was concerned about was his ego,he de-clawed cats so that he could "play" with them. It is GOOD that he no longer works at Zion. But you're right,the Tiger shouldn't have been shot

  • @pagady69 well i have my opinions and you have yours and we should leave it like that i think.

  • @mjsminnieprincess Of course, which were both entitled to, I am not attempting to start an internet arguement! But I just think it is really important that the truth about this man and this establishment gets out, there are so many fabulous places that do so much for cats with little recognition, wheareas this man did nothing but broadcast lies and yet he is famous, its very frustrating.

  • Bring Craig Busch back, he is THE LION MAN, there is no one else like him he has done so much with those animals and this is simply an absolute tragedy and loss, Thumbs Up if you agree!! And they Shot the rare tiger like WTF???

  • This is terrible, The Lion Man is a great show and i can't believe that Craig Busch is sacked =( thats not right, look @ all the things he's done and the fact that he has put himself between lions fighting and nothing happened him, that must say something about the relationship he has with the animals. and they Shot the tiger like WTF

  • We want Craig back! D:

  • They fucking shot the rare tiger!?

  • dont fuck with animals that consider u as there food!!!!stupid ppl

  • shouldn ov starved the poor animal then maybe it would on attacked at plus its NATURE!!!!! fookersss..... r.i.p abu sod the keeper

  • @TheKchambers23 sod the keeper!! Show some respect !

  • why the hell did that cruel bitch of a mother sack craig if he was stilll there non of this wouldof happened

  • i ame realy sad thet they put douwn the tiger........its not domestic cat,its wild animal.its tragedy,but thet cold hapend to enyone whu work with wild animals........its not a reoson to put douwn a rea animal as white tiger.so sorry to craig to lost friends...........my family love craig and animals...from latvia

  • RESPECT TO DALU AND CRAIG BUSCH FROM SCOTLAND BRING HIM BACK

  • @Hayleyyehmate

    Very well said. I totally agree =]

  • Dalu was a legend and so is Craig Busch!!!

  • simply shoot patricia busch ..... problem solved.

    the bitch deserves to die. she caused the deathoff dalu and abu so she deserves nothing more than a bullet in her head

  • those assholes killed the tiger?! those animals are wild they should kill to survive. This is another example of why you shouldn't mess with wild predators.

  • @anneroosbakkes man they were white tigers n zoo bred n not wild...they must hv shot d tiger whn d tiger wudnt let d man free...i understand its d mans mistake n not tigers but still if i was thr i too wud hv shot d tiger in hope of saving d trainer

  • Comment removed

  • @03135387637 what the hell!?

  • beast? they are some really magnificent creature...killing it doesnt bring the keeper back to life!

  • though  the white Tigers are very beautiful and apear cuddly their deadly killers

  • CRAIG IS THE ONLY ONE THAT KNOWS THE ANIMALS IN AND OUT GET HIM BACK

  • Join the Lionman's Facebook page and sign the petition to reinstate Craig

  • A RARE WHITE TIGER!! JESUS FUCKING CRIST AND THEY KILLED IT?!?!

    JESUS HOW STUPID ARE US HUMANS!!

  • @theshychick1

    White tigers are not a 'rare species', just the result of a recessive gene affecting the animal's appearance.

  • Craig's mom probably doesn't want her son getting eaten. It's dangerous to maintain physical contact with tigers. They aren't social creatures, if they kill each other they'll certainly kill humans and Craig has been mauled before despite his apparent gift.

  • they didnt even let craig go to the tigers funeral.

    fucking assholes.

  • Cant believe Craig was fired by his mum, Craig is a very special person, he's so tuned in to those big cats. Like he says to work with these large predators you havto raise them from birth, and you havto be best friends with them.

  • whats the point in shooting the tiger for acting like a tiger .rip dalu

  • @username1774 im with you there, no point in killing the beast AFTER it has killed someone, dalu and all large carnivore handlers know the risks involved in the jobs they do. will they destroy every gun ever made after it has killed someone??

  • they probley attacked him cus there stressed that craig isnt there rip

  • if i killed Dalu noone would shot me its so unfair

  • Cant wait til his mother dies the prick and the tiger must have attacked him for a reason. And dalu rip.

  • HIS MOTHER IS SUCH A BITCH !

    Those animals NEED craig to survive! IDIOTs!

    A tiger is a ntural killer .. ! Poor tiger and POOR CRAIG :\

  • @GiRl13MaRiEnSe

    And poor Dhalu...he got his fuckin head bitten off!

  • his mother is a stupid bitch!! im surprised those animals r still livin after getting rid of craig they saw them as their dad...if it werent 4 craig the park wudnt of been set up in the 1st place

  • Jesus Christ you cant kill a white tiger man. Do you know how many in the nature left now. There are so many of us and wo dont worth nothing.

  • RIP Dalu...I loved watching this show on Sky 3, so much so that I decided to follow what was going on these days at Zion, it is devastating to hear the news of both Craig being dismissed and ofcourse this horrific death.

  • It could of happened in a zoo or a circus so why were they being so snart at the start of it by saying its ment t b family friendly

  • Let him go back 2 the park!! its not doing anyone any good keeping him away from the tigers!! he cant change what happened and it wasnt his fault!! his the best with these tigers and what is goin 2 happen 2 them if they close the park!!  LET HIM BACK!

  • this is tragic,,!! those lions and tigers are such glorious, wonderful majestic creatures.. The white tigers were in very small muddy enclosures.. and a few of them didnt look very happy..pacing up and down.. It did look like an accident waiting to happen.. very sad outcome.. as they charge enough and there is enough space on the property to give them larger enclosures .. i think this is the reason this tiger flipped.. he didnt mean to do it they obviously dont understand how powerful they are

  • Futher to support the Actions taken by the park, I post details of a Siberian tiger, Called Zaya howletts.

    Which attacked and killed it's keeper, the owner didn't put it down and some time later Zaya killed another keeper at the zoo. Zaya was destroyed after killing 2 keepers at the park!

  • you can't release the animal, it has had to much human contact and has no fear of man, Also it has tasted man and if it likes the flavour would look for more on its relaese into the wild.

    Abu had become a man eater and killing him was the only way to keep the keepers safe.

  • its not a beast its a tiger

    bunch of dumb assess

    i agree all dat time craig was der nufink like dat happened

  • Bring back Craig to the park, wouldn't have happened if he had been there and everyone knows it!!! Angry and upset that this beautiful creature was put down due to the incapability of the staff at the park (Craigs clear protocol surrounding the white tigers was not to go in without him s he knew what they were capable of. AND even Craig didn't go in if he felt they were on edge!

  • WHY THE FUCK U HAVE TO PUT DOWN THE TIGER

  • CANT BLAME THE TIGER SON..

  • RIP my nigger buwahaha

  • was dalu EATEN by abu

  • @karanthakkar123 No not really; but he was very severely injured and with that he died from his very bad injuries :(

  • Thanks so very much for all your anwers I really appreaciate ...but I still think It wasn't a good thing for them to kill abu cmmon he is born to be wild ..they must have set him free instead of killg him

    RIP abu and dalu

  • @karanthakkar123 Your very welcome; Yeah I know what you mean about not killing abu... that is true. Its a shame they had to kill him; because they could have just put abu in a separate area with less contact with keepers until they were able to free it into the wild later.

    Plus I think I have heard cases of white lions and white tigers surviving the wild and being able to adapt to it; I'm not sure were I seen that :(

  • its a real shame to humankind to kill such a rare species just bcoz of their hasty decision ...all the zoo should be ready for tigers attack if they want to keep them if not just let them be free rather than killing poor animal in such a way..I' pleased that somebody agrees with me.

  • @karanthakkar123 Yeah; I would say that every other zoo would be prepared if any sort of animal attack on their keeps or even visitors... no doubt with out the whole health and safety these days; and plus there was this whole thing about having those stun guns to subdue the tiger if it did or was ready to attack at the park but they did not have any provided to the keepers or any situated at certain points.

    :( :(

    :)

  • absolutely

  • @FluffnRipples Yep i also agree with you , you can take Zoo's for example Longeat safari park , West Midlands safari park in the uk they have some pretty large lions and tigers they are just as dangerous as any other in the world but they do have safety regs and they are followed , did they not follow it at zion ? it's looking that way especially since craig told them they were unpredicatable and potentially dangerous without his presence and care.

  • Rest In Peace Dalu and Abu

    Abu was a wild animal and they should not be treat like pussy cats they don't have space and freedom like in wild, so we can't blame Abu rest in peace xxxxxxxx

  • R.I.P Dalu and Abu

    it's like craig says lions only attack under threat the lion must of been protecting something or felt threatened by him its not the lions fault it in his blood to protect its home.

  • mikeandwendy74 you bunch of cunts!!! craig is a ledge and is best person around to look after and take these animals on if they are gonna here on the planet in 50 years time. Perhaps they should put u 2 in with the barbarys with pork chops stapled to your eye brows you fuckwits!!!!!!

  • your out of your fuckin mind, all you see is whats on camera, do some research and your mind will change he is not at all who you think he is

  • hey do you think that look after those cats are cheep????just to feed them it cost alot of money they ten tons more than us, the mantencion and the renovocion of the new Craig has bilt a you are ignorant lol!

  • ignorant? do some history study you moron, this guy ripped off so many people on his way to the top its stupid, and go find out about how he handles his cats behind the scenes

  • I think you should do some research and maybe speak to people who actually worked there. Craig worshiped the ground the animals walked on, do you think that if he treated them badly they would allow him in their enclosures and let alone their cubs???? Think about it. Plus like everyone says Abu must have been protecting something or felt threatened, and Craig made it perfectly clear that no-one should go into the male tigers enclosures without his supervision!!!! R.I.P Abu & Dalu!

  • This is absolutely ridiculous. Abu should never have been shot, and for them to have treated it as a "crime scene" is pathetic. It was a very sad and unfortunate accident to happen between human and wild animal! I can't believe that someone who has done so much for the conservation and breeding programme of these endangered animals is being treated in such a ridiculous way. I hope everyone comes to their senses soon and gets that great man back to the park.

  • They shouldn't have killed the animal, & i think they are taking this way to seriously, Abu is a wild animal, Even Dalu would have known this, & as everyone knows tigers can attack & kill anyone at any moment

    If this happened in the wild, would the animal still have been shot?

    You don't shoot human beings for murdering someone, not anymore anyway

  • totally agree

  • i blame his mother for taking the park away from him,if he was in control of the park none of this stuff would of happened

  • In these situations where an animal attacks a human the human have the right too choose whether the animal is killed, dalu died but we knew he wouldnt of wanted abu to be killed. but they still went of with it not to mension that it is an endangered cat. R.I.P Dalu and Abu

  • i think that craigs mother is a dope she didnt consider the concequences of her actions and is partly to blame for dalus death the lion man needs to come back to zion gardens!!!!!

  • i can understand why they shot abu its the same as when a dog attacks they kill the dog responsible but no matter how trained dalu and abu were neither is to blame in my opinion

    R.I.P dalu and R.I.P abu :'(

  • wtf why did the shoot abu wtf its just horrific just completly devastating

    R.I.P DALU MNCUBE R.I.P ABU

  • omg is that how dalu mncube died and abu died abu was my fav white tiger apart from rewa

  • BRING BACK LIONMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I can't believe that they shot Abu, its ridiculous. White Tiger's are Endagered, and its there nature. There Tiger's they are dangerous animals and everyone knows that but its a risk they take.

    Is Craig Busch working back there now? I hope he is, because you can tell by watching the programmes that the Animals all really trust him, and they really do need him. Craig's mum needs to consider the animals.

    R.I.P Dalu MnCube & Abu :(

  • assholes that shot the tiger its in their nature to kill for fucks sake!

  • @oskar91ron yeah and white Tigers are in grave danger as it is their rare beautiful animals the tigers should have been moved out of the way when the men went into the encloshure

  • its a shame it happened but dalu knew the risks when he walked in the cage so you cant blame the tiger its just did what they do. i defo think craig should be reinstated and that this wouldnt of happened if he was there.

  • wtf "RandomRainbow100" it wasnt the way the tigers were brought up.

    they are unpredictable animals! durr they are tigers! i think craig is a very VERY Brave man for doing what his doing and he loves them cats, and they need him

    BRING BACK THE LION MAN!

  • @ sinala learn to speak english

  • it's nothing to do with how the tiger was brought up, all of them were hand raised by craig busch but they are wild animals at heart they can attack whenever

  • It is a tragedy. I love watching the Lion Man on Sky Three and was saddened by Craig Busch's dismissal by his Mother. Craig Busch needs to be reinstated at the Zion Wildlife Sanctuary. Dalu and Abu will be sadly missed.

  • @JoLouise1 like you i watch the lion man repeat's on sky 3 because not only do i like big cat's and animals in general i am currently a beginner wildlife photographer. Well the chances of him returning with the dispute happening I say are remote but like everyone I hope that changes.

  • May Dalu and Abu R.I.P

  • Thats bad its one of the risks you take. Craig mom sounds like a bit off a bitch really

  • i dident blame creig you idoit

    i blame his momther and that idoit who she put in creig place

  • it wasn't DALU's fault, he was the best there was next to craig. He obviously thought the bond was stronger between him and ABU then it was!

    DALU wasn't alone, he was with another keeper, it should of been craig!

    It is an extreamly sad tragady, one that could of and SHOULD of been avoided if Craigs mom hadn't fired Craig.

    I hope whatever happens, those animals are looked after and LOVED by someone with a heart as Gold as Craigs.

    R.I.P ABU N DALU

    God Bless you Craig

    X x X x X

  • his mom should fucking fired creig then she is otoo fiucking blame

  • Shut up. Craig wasn't to blame, he wasn;t even there. he said not to go into a cage without him and the victim ignored him and went ahead.

    It's Dalu's fault.

  • Who else would have cleaned out the cats?

    the park owners are largely to blame

  • Dang man.... sorry.
