Question

Zeke, a retired zoo keeper brought one of the animals from the zoo, an aged tiger, to live with him, keeping it in a fenced yard alongside his house. The tiger had been trained by Zeke and had always been tame and gentle, even when young. By the time Zeke had retired, the tiger was old, almost blind, somewhat slow-moving and the size of a dog. One day, a young girl from the neighborhood came to the home to sell cookies. Since she knew the tiger, the girl opened the gate and called the animal so she could pet him. The tiger ran over to the place from which the sound had come, but because the tiger was almost blind, he bumped into the girl. The girl fell to the ground, breaking her ankle.
