Montecore, the Roy Horn-mauling white tiger, will remain in his home at the Mirage Hotel, and will not be disciplined for his attack on his trainer. Details at Yahoo.
the whole point is that the tiger wasn't trying to EAT him. the guy tripped over the cat's foot, the cat got confused and tried to protect roy by dragging him to the cage.
they were talking about it on the news last night, and the only real wounds he has are the puncture wounds on his neck from being carried. if the tiger wanted to eat him, he'd be dead right now.
