"A Florida high school principal said he regrets using live animals including a caged tiger as part of a jungle-themed prom.

The theme of the prom at Miami's Christopher Columbus High School was "Welcome to the Jungle," reports an ABC affiliate covering south Florida.

The prom, hosted at a hotel near Miami International Airport, featured several animals including a caged tiger, a lemur, two macaws and an African fennec fox.

Details of the wild animals' appearance were sparked in part by a Facebook post from Mari-Cris Castellanos, whose brother attends the school. Her post included videos of the tiger pacing around the cage during prom.”
