Big Cat Safety, Handling and Training
By Dr. Bhagavan Antle |
TOTAL
NUMBERS AND ODDS OF AN ACCIDENTAL DEATH IN THE
USA
BY CAUSE OF INJURY in 2005:
comparing
human fatalities caused by captive exotic and wild animals
(average from
1990 – 2008) to deaths caused in the
course of a normal daily routine in every day life in 2005.
REXANO,
only used fatalities numbers since all deaths
are reported and there is only one degree of death. Injuries in all
walks of life range from life threatening to simple Band-Aid fix,
and many go unreported. The average life expectancy of 77 years was
used to calculate the lifetime odds. The odds are statistical
averages for the whole U.S. population. The vast majority of those
killed by exotic animals are the trainers, handlers and owners. The
real chance of a member of the general public getting killed by an
exotic animal is lower than the averages in the table below; the
same way a non alcoholic is not likely to be killed by excessive
alcohol consumption.
