Lions apparently not enough to keep intruders out

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) -- With 120 lions, tigers and other big cats on the grounds, the owner of a Colorado refuge didn't think he needed a security system.

Nick Sculac says he changed his mind after two January break-ins at Serenity Springs Wildlife Center, 20 miles east of Colorado Springs.

The Colorado Springs Gazette reports ( http://bit.ly/xZJT6H ) someone scaled a 10-foot fence lined with barbed wire and cut a hole in a cage, letting three tigers out. Workers found the tigers roaming the compound the next morning.

Days later, employees arriving for work found two people inside the compound trying to pet a cougar through its cage. Sculac says they scaled the outer fence and drove away.

Sculac says nobody was hurt. He says he hired a guard and is shopping for a security system.

Why would you want to mess with tigers? And who wants to pet a cougar? Crazy people!

Wow, what a ballsy move on the part of the intruders. It's a shame the animals didn't engage their natural instinct and just attack them bitches, that way everyone could learn a lesson from their example.
