Tiger and Two Women – level 3

Tiger and Two Women

01-04-2021 15:00

Security cameras captured the shocking moment that a woman stepped out of the car amid an argument with her husband only to be mauled by a Siberian tiger. Her family and she were in a tiger enclosure at a wildlife park in Beijing.

The tiger appeared suddenly on the road and dragged the woman away. Her husband quickly jumped out after her, followed by the woman’s mother, who was in the back of the car. She tried to save her daughter, but the tiger killed her.

The mauled woman did sustain serious injuries but miraculously survived. The husband and a child, who stayed inside the car, were unhurt.

This was not the first fatal attack in the wildlife park. A tiger mauled an employee to death in 2014.

Difficult words: amid (in the middle of), maul (attack violently), enclosure (an animal’s area), drag (move), miraculously (by a miracle, amazingly), fatal (deadly).
