Tigers killed a woman and severely injured a second when
they left their vehicle at a wildlife park in Beijing on Saturday, mainland
media reports.
The two women were part of a four-member group being driven
through Badaling Safari World, where part of the attraction is how closely the
freely roaming lions and tigers can get to the vehicles, according to the Legal
Evening News.
A dispute with the driver broke out, and one of the women
opened the door to get out, the report said. A tiger rushed up and snatched her
in its jaws and pulled her away. The second woman got out to rescue her, but
another tiger attacked and killed her. Park management rescued the first woman,
who was sent to hospital and was in stable condition on Sunday, according to
the News.
The report did not give the names of the victims or details
about their relationship.
Visitors to the park, located in the Yanqing district near
the Great Wall, are permitted to drive their own vehicles through the area but
are warned not to get out.
