Answer to Question 1

While the wild animal rule makes owners and caretakers of wild animals strictly liable for harm caused to others by those animals, a defense to strict liability applies here. Jay, in climbing under the rope fencing and getting within inches of the bars to the cage, has likely assumed the risk of harm. Accordingly, Harold would not be strictly liable for the injuries sustained by Jay.

Answer to Question 2

B
