Iowa zoo owner recovering from tiger attack
MANCHESTER, IA
The Delaware County sheriff's office says 52-year-old Tom
Sellner suffered lacerations to his head and torso in Sunday
morning's attack at Cricket Hollow Zoo in Manchester. He was flown
to an Iowa City hospital.
A release from Pella Wildlife Company CEO and Sellner media
representative Ron DeArmond says Sellner's injuries aren't life
threatening.
Sellner was attacked while feeding an adult tiger. The tiger was
not put down after the attack.
The zoo's website says it has more than 300 birds and animals,
including tigers, African lions and other exotic cats.
