Woman survives polar bear attack after jumping into enclosure at Berlin Zoo
A 32-year-old woman jumped into the polar bear enclosure at Berlin Zoo, prompting a dramatic rescue as one bear bit her neck. Witnesses feared for her life as zookeepers threw life rings and food to distract the bears. The woman struggled to escape while being pulled back by the bears. Eventually, she was rescued and taken to a hospital with multiple injuries but survived the incident. Zookeepers noted she was fortunate to escape with her life. This incident follows previous zoo intrusions, including a 2008 event where a man entered the enclosure with a baby polar bear. Despite these occurrences, Berlin Zoo has not increased the height of the enclosure walls, stating that determined individuals will find a way in.
