In China, a recent attack of tigers has aroused a growing concern from the public. The incident happened in the tiger enclosure at Badaling Safari World, where visitors can drive through in their vehicles but are warned not to get out. However, during the visit, a young woman got into a quarrel with her husband and got out of the car. A tiger pounced on her suddenly and dragged her away (she has been sent to the hospital but still in serious condition). Even worse, her mother rushed out of the car and tried to save her, but was attacked by another tiger and died at the scene.
Some people did not feel at all sympathetic towards this young woman, think she only had herself to blame due to infringing the rules. Some people think maternal love is greater than nuptial love, because her mother gave her life to save her, while her husband shrank back from danger with no hunt.
This incident led to a flurry of criticism from social media. I just wonder why such many people get so cold and unfeeling to the victim through their own logical thinking, even think tigers are right to maul stupid visitors by nature of the beast. What’s your opinion about this incidence? I just feel sad about this sick and cold society.

Undoubtedly,She should bear the brunt of the blame and has paid for this foolish behavior. But my overriding concern is the cold blood of public opinion, most people seems excited about her folly and are willing to add more insults or sarcastic comments to this victim.

@Sun7788 because people like to vent in social media if they can't vent in real life.

@Letranknight2015 It's true, because this incident won't touch their lives, they just wanna have a topic to vent their over-subjective feelings after dinner.

Humans are suppose to use 'common sense' @Sun7788 . If people can't do that, then maybe they need to close the park. It was her idiocy that caused the problem in the first place.

You are right. If people thought that some form of media would reach the families they might offer more sympathy. Many of the internet users thrive on discussion and debates and talk only of the issues around events forgetting that there are real people involved.

Lesson here is that never get out of the car NO MATTER WHAT. IN fact, they should have hold off their feud after visiting this safari. Now, that girl will regret getting out of that car.
