A note to those driving through a safari park which is home to perhaps the most lethal predator on land – don’t hop out your car, it probably won’t end well.
Case in point is this video from Badaling Wildlife World in China, where you can see a woman being snatched by a tiger after she exited the vehicle.
She was eaten alive, and the woman who ran after her to assist was also seriously injured. This from the Daily Mail:
…the family – one older woman, a younger woman, a child and a man – were in the park, just over an hour north-west of Beijing, on Saturday.
The younger woman and the man are understood to have had an argument, at which point she stormed out of the car, reports Chinese media.
The older woman then followed her out – and was instantly attacked by the Siberian tiger. The man is also understood to have tried to rescue his family members, while the child stayed in the car.
The 6,000 acre park, which allows people to either drive themselves or join a tour, tells people not to leave their vehicles at any point.
The family were eventually rescued by Badaling’s staff, but there was nothing that could be done for the older woman. The younger woman was seriously injured.
This is one of the less graphic videos doing the rounds, but it still doesn’t make for easy viewing:
