It's not your average petting zoo with goats and cows and sheep. How about coming up close and personal with lions and tigers and bears (oh my) and cheetahs.

So, TG, this friend of your dad told you to IGNORE the sign and stick your fingers in?

I think this type of petting zoo is just crazy. IMHO, it's okay for ADULTS to sign away their rights and pay the $50 to risk a petting event with a wild animal. I also think that a child should never be able to have had their same rights signed away.
Wild animals are just that, wild by nature. You read all the time that dogs will bite if provoked. I guess I'd rather be bit by a dog than a tiger or lion. D'oh! And who determines what provocative behavior by a human will instigate a wild animal response?

Apparently, this was provocative enough to instigate a wild animal response:
