Drama on the leopard runway. Experienced caretaker dies
A tragic incident occurred at Beekse Bergen Zoo in the Netherlands, where a female employee was attacked by Persian leopards while performing her duties. She sustained severe head and neck injuries and was transported to the hospital in critical condition. Despite undergoing surgery, her condition worsened, leading to her death shortly after. The zoo expressed deep sorrow over her passing, noting her extensive experience and commitment to safety. An independent investigation has been launched to clarify the circumstances of the attack, as there were no cameras in the enclosure. It remains unclear whether one or both leopards were involved, and the animals will not be euthanized.
