Tallinger was shocked to learn a few days later that he had been terminated. He said he was told that he was fired for not alerting a manager that the animal had wandered into the store.
Tallinger told WISN that he loved being a greeter because of all of the people he met on the job. Tallinger had been a greeter at the store for approximately eight years and was a popular fixture with customers, according to WISN.
When reached for comment, Walmart released the following statement to WISN: "We appreciate the public's concern and take this situation seriously. While we will not comment on HR matters, we can confirm Mr. Tallinger is no longer with the company."
