New York ( CNN ) -- The 25-year-old man who jumped from a monorail car into the Bronx Zoo 's tiger den was not drunk or insane , New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said . `` Apparently he has some fascination with tigers , '' Kelly told CNN affiliate WABC . `` He visited the zoo in the last month , month and a half , and focused on that area . '' Kelly added there was no evidence Villalobos is mentally ill or was intoxicated . `` I do n't think it was malicious , '' Kelly added . `` There was no indication he was drinking , but that he just ... momentarily lost any semblance of common sense . '' David Villalobos , who is hospitalized in stable condition , told police `` his leap was definitely not a suicide attempt , but a desire to be one with the tiger , '' according to Paul Browne , chief spokesman for the NYPD . Villalobos was riding on the zoo 's Wild Asia monorail around 3 p.m. Friday when he jumped out of the rail car , `` clearing the exhibit 's perimeter fence '' and landing in the den , according to Bronx Zoo Director Jim Breheny . Villalobos suffered a broken right shoulder , broken rib , collapsed lung , broken ankle , broken pelvis and puncture wounds , according to police spokesman Brian Sessa . Villalobos later claimed to have pet one of the tigers before it backed off , Sessa added . The commissioner said most of Villalobos 's injuries appear to be the result of the 17-foot fall from the monorail . Man in critical condition after jumping into Bronx Zoo 's tiger pit . Police said Villalobos was charged with misdemeanor trespassing and will be arraigned after he leaves the hospital . He will not have a court appearance until January , according to the office of the Bronx district attorney . Zoo officials said rescuers used a fire extinguisher to separate the man and the animal . Heeding instructions , Villalobos rolled `` under a hot wire to safety , '' and the tiger backed off , Breheny said . The zoo uses so-called hot wires -- or electrically charged cables -- as training tools to keep animals away from such areas as plant beds . If the animal comes into contact with the wire , it feels a small electric shock . Villalobos ' decision to follow instructions and roll under the wire `` probably saved his life , '' Breheny told reporters Friday . He was `` conscious and talking '' as he was taken by ambulance to Jacobi Medical Center in Bronx , New York . `` I think it 's safe to say that if the tiger really wanted to do harm to this individual he certainly had the time to do it , '' Breheny said . `` This is just an extraordinary occurrence that happened because ... somebody was deliberately trying to endanger themselves . '' The exhibit is called Tiger Mountain and houses Siberian tigers as well as Malayan tigers , according to the Bronx Zoo 's website . The Bronx Zoo is the city 's flagship park run by the Wildlife Conservation Society . Tigers ' den jumper wanted 'to be one ' with beast , police say .
