A critically endangered tiger was heralded as "a great ambassador for his species" when the animal was brought over to Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens in late 2019.

The 8-year-old animal named Eko was shot and killed Wednesday by a Collier County Sheriff's Office deputy after it bit a man's arm and wouldn't let go.
