A 'Feast for the Beast' fundraiser held at a zoo in Idaho takes a bloody turn when a 600-pound Siberian tiger breaks free and pursues one of the organisers, catches and attacks them, with the organiser sustaining a serious injury to their hip when a police officer tasked with scaring the big cat off accidentally shoots them instead. Finally, a police officer stares down an angry bull when the animal escapes from a 'bloodless' Massachusetts bullfight and goes on a rampage.
