and came after you where in the ZOO would you run if you had a few seconds to decide ....Is there a cage you would rather be in ?
I would jump into the Monkeys or Gorillas cage as they seem more like us and would perhaps "Sence" the Fear and try to even help out .

The monkey enclosure probably wouldn't be too bad, but if you jumped in with gorillas, the lead male gorilla would take that as an attack and you'd be in bigger trouble than you were with the tiger.
Probably the best thing to do if a tiger was loose would be to find a bunch of other people and stand in a group. If alone, get up on top of something like a bench or table, to make yourself look bigger.
The main reason the authorities suspect those boys of teasing the tiger is that it attacked all three. Normally a loose tiger would attack only if threatened or hungry. A hungry tiger would look for a child or a lone adult, preferably a smaller one.

Yeah, because you'll outrun a tiger. Look at what happened to those kids in CA, one tiger took out all three of them. One of them ran and even made it to a concession area. Where the tiger promptly tracked him down and attacked him anyway. Too bad the tiger had to be killed the only one of the piece of #$^$ kids was killed.

i would make myself look really big and try and stay as calm as possible while trying to slowly move away. and i wouldn't go into the gorilla or chimp cage because they can be very agressive if threatened. i would try and find someway to get indoors away from the animal.

I don't think any cage would be unlocked so try any building with a door you can close. If the cat can't see you he can't attack. Looking bigger or playing dead will work on most animals except cats. Cats eat people most other animals don't.

Not necessarily true, especially with gorillas. I would run to a lace with a door i could close , and if not get in a ball and protect my neck area and pray.

I wouldn't move...I'd make loud threatening gestures back at the tiger and make myself look big by holding my hands up high above my head. Do this around any attacking cat and they get really confused and stop their attacks.

I would probably pass out.
