The point of killing the man-eating tiger is not to send other tigers a message.
The point of putting down the man-attacking dog is not to send other dogs a message.
And neither is it to end once and for all tiger attacks on people (though extinction will do that, probably, fairly soon), or to end once and for all attacks by dogs on children.
The point is to end attacks by that tiger, or by that dog.
And there is not the slightest doubt it works.
