It’s difficult for anyone who has visited a zoo to ignore the many signs asking people not to feed animals or approach them too closely. The purpose of these signs is to protect both visitors and zoo animals.
Regrettably, accidents do happen, and occasionally, individuals place themselves in perilous situations deliberately. This unfortunate reality recently unfolded with a woman named Mandy K., who was left distraught after an extended period of unemployment.
This 32-year-old woman bravely decided to jump into the polar bear enclosure while visiting the Berlin Zoo. She had to cross a wall, climb a fence, and make her way through a row of hedges. She also decided to make this leap while these amazing animals were feeding.

Fortunately, a shrewd zoo worker stepped in, scaring the bear away and saving Mandy from a dire situation.
Mandy was left with significant injuries to her arm, leg, and back.
