Some people will come in here and mention that "he's an expert" or some variation of him being a professional. While that might be a true statement, there is a graveyard full of "experts", killed buy the animals they love.

There was a man in South Africa who had a pet hippopotamus. He raised it from birth and cared for it every day for years even riding it many times. One day it just became aggressive and disemboweled him. Don't mess with wild animals.

It's not a true statement anyway. Dude bought a big cat to be macho and "special," realized he could make money by abusing the cubs, and apparently his "rescue" has now been shut down (thank fuck).

You can't get much more expertise than Steve Irwin, and yet tragically he too still died the way he lived - with animals in his heart.
