We commonly say in the trade that the most dangerous animal in a zoo is Man

In Yann Martel's novel "Life of Pi," the protagonist, Pi Patel, finds himself stranded on a lifeboat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. Throughout the novel, Pi reflects on his experiences growing up in a zoo in India and the interactions he had with various animals, including the dangerous Bengal tiger. The quote "We commonly say in the trade that the most dangerous animal in a zoo is Man" takes on a deeper meaning in the context of Martel's novel.
