I'm more concerned with drunk or texting drivers than getting eaten by a tiger. Does that mean I shouldn't be worried if someone lets a tiger loose in the park?

That depends. The tiger might get hit by a drunk driver, then eat them when they get out of the car, thus reducing your overall level of personal risk.

You prove exactly the point. People get all up in arms over silly things when there are much bigger concerns in the world.
Someone shows a video of a RC jet flying extremely fast and the assumption is this guy is endangering the public and has no regard for safety of others.
Lets just get congress to waste time implementing laws for both fast flying RC planes and another one to make it illegal for your tiger to eat a person.

What if there's a tiger with a team of professional large animal trainers abiding by all sensible guidelines?

except for letting loose the tiger in the first place.

The hypothetical situation I'm proposing is if the tiger is not let loose, but is being tended to by experienced people.

We should also calculate the risk if the tiger was being flown round the park on a jet powered drone, just to cover all bases.
