On Wednesday evening a keeper was cleaning out a cage in which were a young lion and a tiger, at the Blackpool Aquarium, and for that purpose put them into an adjoining cage next to two large Bengal tigers. The keeper, in commencing to put the two young animals back in their own cage, lifted by mistaked the sliding partition between that cage and the cage of the full grown tigers. The young lion was bounded into the larger cage, and was immediately crushed to death by one of the tigers.
