Students and parents were outraged after a caged tiger and other animals made an appearance at a jungle-themed Florida high school prom Friday. Christopher Columbus High School, a private Catholic school in Miami, held its prom at a hotel near Miami International Airport, where a caged tiger was wheeled out onto the dance floor, according to WSVN-TV. Amid fire dancers and loud music, the tiger was seen pacing back and forth in its cage and appeared nervous. “This is an event to have fun and amusement, but is torturing an animal really considered amusement?” she told WSVN-TV. All of the creatures were "provided by facilities that are licensed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission," the statement added.
