His suicide note said something about the coming apocalypse. He was screaming about Jesus. After the lions began to maul him the zoo workers were forced to shoot the lions.
DM- … he trespassed into an area where the public are not normally allowed and we understand that he forced the roof of the lion’s enclosure.
‘It was from there that he jumped, took off his clothes and started to attract the lions.’
The zoo director said she was ‘deeply affected’ by the deaths of the two lions, a male and a female.
‘The zoo has an established protocol because people’s lives are very important to us,’ said Montalba.
She added that there were no fast-acting tranquilizers available to stop the lions from mauling the man.
One witness, Cynthia Vasquez, told Chilean radio station Bio Bio that the security personnel at the zoo were slow to react and that the animals did not attack the man as soon as he entered the enclosure.
‘He entered the enclosure from above and the lions started to play with him, and then after they attacked him,’ she said.
She also said the man was ‘shouting things about Jesus’.
She criticised the actions of the security personal, saying ‘first they threw water, evacuated the people and only later did they fire shots’.
A father who was at the park with his young son, told news channel Chilevision: ‘Everyone started screaming when they saw him.’
Another witness added: ‘There were a lot of children there, and parents covered their eyes while it was going on.’
They continued: ‘He was screaming religious things.’
Was his first Name Daniel?
“… forced to shoot …”
Bullshit.
They “chose to shoot” the lions because Chileans are racists! Apparently crazy asshole lives are more important than lions’ lives!
They should have written a letter of protest to Santiago expressing their outrage that some fool would bother the lions and that some kind of law should be passed to keep crazy fools out of the lions’ domain.
It’s only fair. If even ONE lion can be saved, it’s worth it!
izlamo delenda est …
Just fucking shoot the guy and put him out of his misery.
Gosh. Why did all the parents cover their own eyes and let the children watch?
I’m upset that they shot the lions.

Hey Zookeeper, lions don’t want Chileans with good taste, they want Chileans that taste good.
Naked? He had no pride, so he jumped in one.
Chili! Without beans!
“Mmm … tastes like chicken …”
