There are some things that happen in life and we would almost expect that they would happen because of the circumstances. In many cases, these are things that teach us lessons that we carry through life and in other cases, they are just stupid things that we may do.
Recently, a 32-year-old woman jumped into a cage with the polar bears at the Berlin Zoo. If that wasn’t bad enough, she chose feeding time in order to hop into the enclosure.
They did manage to pull her out of the enclosure before she was killed but she did manage to get bitten a lot before she was rescued. She also had to do quite an acrobatic act to get into the enclosure, as she climbed over a fence, a line of hedges, and then went over a wall before she was finally inside.
It all started as the polar bear was being fed at the Berlin zoo and she jumped over the bars to try to get inside. As a result of her daring maneuver, she sustained injuries to her arms, legs, and back.
There were six different zookeepers who were on hand to try to divert the attention of the four polar bears so they didn’t attack her. It didn’t work, and one of the polar bears came over to bite her on the arms and legs repeatedly. Eventually, they were able to frighten the bear off and save the woman.
After being taken to the hospital, the woman was given surgery to repair her wounds and she is now recovering. Unfortunately, there is a sad story behind it because she was desperate because she couldn’t find a job as a teacher. It seemed as if she may have been trying to take her own life in this way.
Let’s just hope that she gets the help she needs.
