A 32-year-old woman, identified as Mandy K, was injured by a polar bear at the Berlin Zoo on Friday after she entered the enclosure during feeding time. To gain access, she climbed over a fence, a hedge, and a wall.
As she entered the enclosure, the bear attacked her, causing significant injuries to her arms, legs, and back.
Despite the efforts of six zookeepers to distract the four bears, one bear “repeatedly bit the victim on the arms and legs.” The zookeepers eventually managed to scare the bear away and rescue Mandy.
