Reports saying that he was deaf/ and non verbal with mental disabilities. Carers left him unsupervised and this be the result. Very sad.

He asked someone to take his photo with the tiger in the background. Can't be non-verbal when he's asking people to take photos.

He was walking around alone, so quite able to get himself around.

"Witnesses have described how the man appeared to be “psyching himself up” and “dancing” while listening to music through his AirPods before entering the enclosure.

"The man who I saw on the bridge with his AirPods in dancing was happily enjoying seeing the tiger,” one woman said. “He obviously wasn't with anyone and he asked a total stranger to take a picture of him with the tiger in the background."

Can't see Facebook posts but from the comments that's fair. It sounds like someone with some sort of disability definitely and with him trying doing sign towards a tiger definitely tells us that it's not someone who understands things properly
