Polar Bear Attacks Woman At Berlin Zoo

A polar bear attacked a woman at Berlin Zoo Friday afternoon after she climbed a fence and jumped into its habitat during feeding time.

Zoo workers tossed rescue rings toward the woman to hoist her out and distract polar bears swimming nearby.

At one point the woman fell back into the water and was grabbed by a bear before she was eventually hoisted to safety.

She was taken to a hospital for treatment where she is now recovering after undergoing surgery to heal her wounds.
