La. Woman Survives Attack by Pet Leopard
February 10, 2004
PORT SULPHUR, La. (AP) _ A woman who had raised her pet leopard from a cub was mauled by the animal, but survived after a deputy shot the 100-pound cat as its jaws were clamped on its owner’s head, authorities said.
Julie Miles, 33, of Port Sulphur, was in fair condition Tuesday at West Jefferson Medical Center in Gretna, spokeswoman Benola Cooper said.
The leopard, named Jovani, let Miles go Monday after a Plaquemines Parish sheriff’s deputy shot it twice, sheriff’s spokesman Maj. Charles Guey said.
The deputy shot the cat a third time after it crouched to attack again, but the animal was not killed until Miles’ brother-in-law, Jimmy Saunier, arrived and killed it with a shotgun blast, Guey said.
Miles had been petting Jovani on Monday and was just about to leave when the cat ``got hold of her,″ her mother, Shirley Alesich, told The (New Orleans) Times-Picayune.
The family said Jovani had always been gentle in the past and that Miles had all the permits she needed for the animal.

Captive black leopard mauls man in backyard zoo at Davie home

DAVIE — It’s a tale that could have been pulled straight out of “Tiger King,” the hit television show on Netflix that illustrates how dangerous interactions between humans and wild animals can be.
A captive black leopard mauled a man who paid for the interaction in Broward County, according to a report by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
The report did not give details about where the attack took place.
WPLG-Ch. 10 reported it was in a backyard zoo behind a Davie home.

The man paid $150 for a “full-contact experience” with the black leopard — to “play with it, rib its belly and take pictures,” Ch. 10 reported.
The moment the man walked inside the leopard’s enclosure, the huge cat attacked him. The predator’s bite caused severe injuries.
The man who operates the backyard zoo is licensed to have the leopard, the report says. He was cited on a misdemeanor charge for allowing full contact with the predatory cat and for maintaining captive wildlife in an unsafe condition that injured someone, the report says.
The attack caught the attention of the Animal Rights Foundation of Florida. The unsafe environment endangered both humans and animals, campaigns coordinator Nick Atwood said.
“It is far too common for small zoos and quasi-sanctuaries in Florida to sell photo ops, play sessions or other ‘interactions’ with exotic animals,” Atwood said. “Both people and animals are put in harm’s way when the public comes into direct contact with captive wild animals.”
The Panther Ridge Conservation Center in Loxahatchee and McCarthy’s Wildlife Sanctuary in West Palm Beach both house black leopards, Atwood said. Just in the past decade, there have been multiple incidents at both facilities in which big cats and other wild animals have
harmed humans.

In 2010, a jaguar bit off part of a woman’s thumb at the Panther Ridge Conservation Center. The 10-acre wildlife center, home to nearly two dozen cheetahs, pumas, jaguars and other cats, had to pay a penalty of $2,786 over alleged violations of the law on the handling of animals in a public exhibit.
The owner at McCarthy’s Wildlife Sanctuary was cited in 2008 for keeping animals in an unsafe manner, resulting in a threat to the public after a Bengal tiger and a lion
escaped their enclosure.
A woman also got
bit by a cobra there in 2014.
Perhaps the most memorable case was at the Palm Beach Zoo in 2016, when a tiger
killed a zookeeper. Officials at the Palm Beach Zoo said they increased employee training, added security cameras and installed new locks to improve safety at the tiger exhibit.
I know it was handled properly, say less. RIP OGD
