A 32-year-old woman who jumped into a polar bear enclosure during feeding time at Berlin Zoo on Friday was mauled by one of the polar bears. She was bitten several times before being rescued.

What did she expect, applause from the onlookers and a hug from the one of the most dangerous animals alive. When will people relaise that these are wild animals even if they are in a zoo. Thanks Steve Irwin, I see your series is still inspiring a few clever people around the world. Wonder if they will now blame the bear and declare it a danger, she got what she deserved.
ReplyDeleteit could be argued that anyone who wants to climb into a bear pit is being selected out of the gene pool.
