And the truth of the matter is... drum roll please... she was cleaning it's cage whilst it was supposedly locked up in a smaller cage, the door hadn't been properly secured, it escaped and killed her.

However, I assume this news article to be inaccurate as most people on PH have figured out that she actually chose to go into a cage with a lion voluntarily and that Darwinism was therefore at work...
Most?

Anyway very tragic accident that should have been avoided.

Lions are dangerous and you shouldn't get complacent. Poor girl.

Another slow reader?

The lion was (inadequately enclosed) in a smaller enclosure while the intern was cleaning the larger enclosure. The lion managed to lift the gate between the two and attack the intern. No information so far released would support your description of her as a "stupid woman".

well, which ever way you look at it, some silly fooker was stupid - but not the shot lion as that managed to work out the game of using the lion handle.

Someone probably was either stupid or negligent but the woman killed was just an intern, she wasn't in charge of the place and she isn't one of those loonies who deliberately climb into animal enclosures to stroke the big pussy-cats.

Funny thread.

Reminds me of one of those ridiculous yank forums you end up on sometimes when you've googled something. Or YouTube comments where no one bothers to read previous comments before spouting their own drivel. Quality.

Oh and the lion? Well it's a shame but it was unfortunately necessary. And the woman's death was either as a result of bad luck or a very clever lion. We'll never know.

A woman goes into a lion enclosure and gets mauled by a perfectly normal lion
If only the lion had had mental health issues, he could have been incarcerated for life...erm
