Footage shows shocking tiger attack in Beijing's wildlife park

in #travel8 years ago

 One woman was killed and another injured after a pair of tigers pounced  on them at Beijing's Badaling Wildlife Park on Saturday afternoon.

The  tigers attacked one of the women when she left her vehicle and walked a  few meters away from the car. The surveillance video footage shows the  woman being dragged by the tiger, which prompted the second woman to  rush for help. However, she didn't survive the attack.

While  the park allows visitors to drive their own cars in a safari-style  tour, they are prohibited to get out as the animals roam freely through  the park. But the first woman got out of the car after an alleged  argument, putting her life at risk, according to several media reports.

The  park has been closed for the time being. But the weekend attack wasn’t  the first. In August 2014, a security guard was killed in a tiger attack  at the same park.
