Michael Jackson Tigers, Thriller And Sabu, Near California Wildfires

This just in from TMZ.

The Shambala Preserve, where Michael Jackson’s old tigers Thriller and Sabu are housed, is close to where the California wildfires are taking place.

However, despite mandatory evacuations, sanctuary officials are not going anywhere.

“We house 64 big cats and it would be a logistical nightmare to bring all these cats down the road and get in the firefighters way of doing their job,” Tippi Hedren, owner of the sanctuary said.

The sanctuary staff plans to stay on the grounds with the tigers and ride the fire out.

What do you think?

Should there have been more emergency plans on part of the sanctuary in case of a situation like this?

Hard to move 64 tigers, but when you have a sanctuary in a place where you know disasters like these happens…kind of like buying ocean front property without flood insurance.

We hope things turn out okay.

Talk about horror!

The new flick Sorority Row, starring Rumer Willis, is about a group of sorority sisters who accidentally kill a girl and try to keep it a secret.

Good luck with that one.

One of the sets on Sorority Row is filmed in an actual slaughterhouse.

Rumer was interviewed by The Today Show and mentions the “drains” and “hooks” she saw and how they added to the horror experience.

Not nearly as horrifying for animals, I’m sure, as none of them would pay for a show in a real slaughterhouse.

Watch Rumer describe the set.
