How Arizona Zoo Visitors Distracted Jaguar With a Water Bottle During Attack
March 11, 2019
A jaguar that attacked a woman who posed outside its zoo enclosure in Arizona will not be put down, zoo officials said. The woman, who hasn’t been identified, was allegedly trying to take a selfie when she crossed a barrier intended to keep visitors back from the animal's enclosure at Wildlife World Zoo in Litchfield Park. The jaguar took a swipe at her, clawing her arm. “The visitor sustained non-life-threatening injuries to their arm from one of our female jaguars,” the zoo tweeted.
