A tourist was killed by a tiger and another seriously injured after getting out of their car while touring a safari park in China.[/span]An investigation was launched into the deadly incident at the Badaling Wildlife Park in Beijing.Surveillance video captured the moment when two visitors in the front seats of a white sedan reportedly got into an argument while driving through the tiger enclosure on Saturday.
In the video, a woman is seen getting out of the car and walking around to the driver's side door when a tiger suddenly attacks her from behind and drags her off.
The male driver immediately chases after them but retreats. A second woman in the back of the car joins the rescue attempt but authorities said she was killed by another tiger.
Park workers were on the scene within seconds but they were too late to save the victim.

The tiger culture believes Asian gallbladder acts as an aphrodisiac.

Fell for the old "Let's do a Chinese Fire Drill in the Tiger preserve" prank, eh?
Hehe...gets me every time.
Would have been better with the "wait for it! Wait for it!" caption though.

Damn. Their website really delivers: www.tigerfriends.com/RSF.htmlT.I.G.E.R.S. and the R.S.F. (Rare Species Fund) ....the highly acclaimed show "The Tale of the Tiger". At our Preservation Stations, the wildlife ambassadors; the great apes, big cats, elephant and a stunning group of other highly interactive animal ambassadors, offer our guests a collection of experiences that can be life changing. While at the preserves, the participants senses are awakened to a whole new world; feeling the leathery hide of our elephant, the soft touch of a lynx, the sweet smell of a binturong and the heart pounding sound of tigers running at 55 miles per hour. Our visitors see animals they know and love displaying their spectacular natural talents and have encounters with new ones they never even knew existed. During these encounters our guests connect with wildlife in a very intimate way which personally involves them in the lives of these amazing animals. |

The male driver immediately chases after them but retreats. A second woman in the back of the car joins the rescue attempt but authorities said she was killed by another tiger. So, which woman was killed? the first one dragged off, shown in video? or the second one who tries to help? there were two tigers? i am confused  |
