Yes it's sad it happened but where is the outrage for the cow that was killed to feed the lions previously? At least the zoo didn't just usher Marius into the lions enclosure and let nature take its course fully.
Personally, I have found animals to be more affable than many humans.

The world would be a better place if humans were to become extinct. There was an interesting programme on last year about how nature would reclaim the Earth should this happen.
