Zoo Police Bravery


One thing the tiger story highlights is the hazardous nature of work in the emergency services.

Four police officers reported for their shift on Christmas Day on what I would imagine they would have expected to be one of the quietest days of the year. They left behind family, somewhere if not in their own home, enjoying festivities.

They ended the day by shooting a tiger - albeit in zoo grounds - in a residential area of...San Francisco!

They deserve medals for bravery.
