UKMustangFan Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 Multiple Crews Respond to Rhinoceros Bite Umm....If you're stupid enough to put your body close enough for a rhino to bite you, well the rhino is probably doing society a favor.
TheDeuce Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 I don't need to read one word of this story. If you get bit by a rhino, it's your fault. :lol2:
UKMustangFan Posted October 2, 2018 Author Posted October 2, 2018 Cincinnati Zoo @CincinnatiZoo 9m9 minutes ago Kendi, the one-year-old rhino, nipped the tip of an adult male’s right index finger during a behind the scenes encounter earlier today. The guest is being treated for a minor injury and expected to be fine.
TheDeuce Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 Who gets bit by a Rhino!!! Someone who deserves it.
tcjkbt Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 Tell the zoo people to give the rhinos a little more food.
nkuclubbaseball19 Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 Maybe it’s just me but when I read the zoo’s tweet about the incident I instantly noticed how they said “expected to be fine” and likened it to a parent telling their kid “oh you’ll be fine” when the kid does something they aren’t supposed to and gets scraped up. The terminology of “fine” makes me think the zoo staff had the same reaction of people on this site. You stick your hand near a rhino mouth and you shouldn’t be surprised that you got bit. Hopefully that makes sense. It does in my head but no idea if it translates into a sensical post.

Does anyone know what type of mandatory investigation/reporting has to be done when an animal at a zoo injures someone? I also wonder if the findings are public record.
theguru Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 Kendi, a young eastern black rhino, bit the tip of a man's right index finger during a behind-the-scenes encounter, officials said. The zoo said the man was feeding Kendi an herbivore treat when he was bitten. "I'm happy to report that the finger was just dislocated," a zoo spokeswoman said. Baby rhino bites patron's finger at Cincinnati Zoo So we have a behind-the-scenes encounter with a man feeding a plant eating baby rhino and the man suffered a dislocated finger from being bitten. Sure sounds innocent.
MJAlltheWay24 Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 Listermann Brewery makes a beer called Kendi (named after this young rhino) and proceeds go back to the zoo. Random fun fact for you guys.
CincySportsFan Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 Listermann Brewery makes a beer called Kendi (named after this young rhino) and proceeds go back to the zoo. Random fun fact for you guys. Does it have a little bit of a bite to it? Sorry, couldn't resist.
