Bronx Zoo tiger-maul victim hopes to cash in on ordeal: sources

He jumped from the Bronx Zoo monorail into a tiger’s den, and has been lapping up the attention ever since.

“This is a good thing that happened; maybe I can make some money, write a book,” jumper David Villalobos told workout buddies yesterday at the Westchester gym where he’s doing physical therapy after his Sept. 21 leap into a tiger enclosure at the zoo.

Villalobos, due in Bronx Criminal Court today on trespassing charges, admitted he was worried about losing his real-estate license because of the stunt, said a source at the Club Fit gym in Jefferson Valley.

But he was also bragging, saying that the media won’t stop calling him, according to a source, adding, “He said he gets calls from people all over the world.”

He doesn’t remember much about the attack, but seemed pleased that cops and hospital personnel referred to him as “Tarzan,” said a source.
