Tiger attack in SA

Where the hell did this animal come from!?

We are not supposed to have wild tigers running around South Africa

"A 13-year-old boy is in a critical condition after he and several others were attacked by a tiger in Dinoka village near Zeerust on Wednesday, North West police said."

Had to laugh at this though.

""One of the cops fired shots from his rifle and the tiger diverted its attention to a police reservist who also fired a shot from his gun," he said. "A reservist was shot twice in the leg by diverted ammunition." He said the tiger was becoming more and more aggressive, attacking randomly. However, the officers started shooting it simultaneously and it was killed.

This incident happened near a village which is in a very mountainous bushy area near the Botswana border.
