One woman died and another was severely injured after a tiger attacked them when they exited their vehicle while at the Beijing Badaling Wildlife World this weekend, according to Yanqing County government.
The incident, caught in part on surveillance video, took place on Saturday at an outdoor, drive-through animal park in China, where visitors can drive around in their cars and view exotic animals as if on a safari. The tragedy occurred when one woman exited her vehicle while in the Siberian tiger enclosure part of the animal park.
Surveillance footage shows a woman exiting the passenger side of the vehicle, walking over to the driver's side, and then standing outside of the vehicle while she seems to speak with someone inside the car. Suddenly a tiger pounces on her, dragging the woman away from the vehicle and off camera.
Two more people then jump out of the car, running after the woman and tiger, disappearing off camera.
The woman who died was a 57-year-old mother who was trying to save her daughter from the tiger, according to the South China Morning Post. The daughter, in her 30s, who is reportedly the one seen being dragged away by the tiger in the surveillance video, was severely injured, the paper reported.

What a brilliant plan by the husband to get rid of his mother-in-law....and it looks to me like he pulled it off with out a hitch.
hour later the tiger was hungry again
How can this be? Disney shows tigers that act and rationalize like humans.
just...damn.
Hope to God that the ChiComs didn’t kill the tiger,....or ate him.
The Tiger was being tiger.
The Badabing Wildlife World? I figured that was in New York
Diabolical, but I like it.

“Hope to God that the ChiComs didn’t kill the tiger,....or ate him.”
Like the AmeriComs killed that gorilla for not killing the child? Not sure if the gorilla became a fur coat...
“BTW their were kids in the car.”
Just one kid.
One Child Policy.

No, it's across the river in Joisey.
A while back I read an anecdote about a small boat of poachers went into a wildlife preserve (I think in Bangladesh) at night with no lights to avoid detection.
It was a small tributary, and as they slowly proceeded in the dark, they heard a soft splash. When they turned on a spotlight, they saw a tiger dragging a guy up the riverbank by his head.
Apparently, there were high banks on both sides of the stream, and the tiger had leaped over the boat, grabbed one of the poachers out of the boat by his head in mid-air, and landed on the other side.
After watching that video, I don’t doubt the veracity of that story I heard for a single second. It looked like it grabbed that woman by her lower back with its teeth on each side of her spine and made off with her with seemingly no effort at all.
So many people are killed, injured, or scared by animals every year, yet there are no self defense courses against them.
I have this neighbor, and last month a goose snuck into his house through the doggy door and chased him around the house for 20 minutes! Fortunately, his wife was able to look herself into their bedroom and call the police.
With stories about Haramba the Gorilla and this Tiger in the news, I think there’d probably be a huge market for animal self defense, so I’ve been working on some techniques to teach.
At a white belt, you’d learn how to defend yourself against a goose or an angry cat. At black belt, you would learn how to defend yourself against beasts like a gorillas or tigers.
“You put tiger meat on menu, missy? I select one from column A this time!!”
I guess the tiger was not in the mood for an appetizer
And it did it without rocking the boat.
A Chinese couple gets married - and she’s a virgin. Truth be told, he is none too experienced either. On the wedding night, she cowers naked under the bed sheets as her husband undresses. He climbs in next to her and tries to be reassuring: “My darring” he says, “I know dis you fus time and you berry frighten. I plomise you, I give you anyting you wan, I do anyting jus anyting you wan, you say. Whatchou wan?” he says, trying to sound experienced, which he hopes will impress his virgin bride. A thoughtful silence follows and he waits patiently (and eagerly for her request.
She eventually replies shyly and unsure, “I wanna ... numba 69.”
More thoughtful silence, this time from him. Eventually, in a puzzled tone he queries.........
“You want... Beef wif Bwoccori?”
Is that video on YouTube?
Fabulous humor!
