I believe the 42nd Street Library opened in 1911. The architects were Carrere & Hastings. Great photo!

This is awful! Why did they shoot the poor Lions?

NYT of October 21, 1913 reports: "Leipzic, Oct 20. Eight lions and a tiger escaped from a circus van here at midnight last night, and for four hours the wildest excitement and terror prevailed in the middle of the city." query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9C00E0DB113CE633A... Six lions and the tiger were killed. Two lions were captured alive.
Roar The Movie said:
Still happens today. Robbie, the star lion in The Movie Roar was shot by police during filming due to a flood. Tippy Hedron tells the heart wrenching story in our documentary "The Making of Roar."
Skip Goforth said:
Good for you guys to help the big kitties. Tell Tippy we love her.
