If you’ve ever been to a zoo, you’ve likely noticed the signs reminding visitors not to feed or approach the animals. These rules exist to protect both the visitors and the animals.
Unfortunately, accidents do happen, and in some cases, people deliberately put themselves in harm’s way. Such was the case with 32-year-old Mandy K., a teacher who reportedly became desperate after struggling to find a job.
During a visit to the Berlin Zoo, Mandy made the shocking decision to enter the polar bear enclosure. To do so, she climbed over a fence, passed through a line of hedges, and scaled a wall. She then jumped into the enclosure while the bears were being fed—a particularly dangerous time.
Tragically, one of the bears quickly attacked her, leaving her with severe injuries, including deep bite wounds.
Fortunately, a zoo employee managed to intervene and scare the bear away, ultimately rescuing Mandy. However, she suffered significant injuries to her arm, leg, and back.
Watch the video below:
Mandy was rushed to the hospital, where she underwent surgery. She is now recovering from her injuries.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of why zoo safety rules should always be followed.

Mom goes to the bathroom to nurse her child, and a waitress slips her husband a note.
Jackie Johnson-Smith was treated to an unanticipated act of kindness while dining with her family at a pizza restaurant in Iowa.
She shared a picture of the restaurant bill along with the statement, “I have breastfed three children,” on Facebook. I have cared for them in countless situations, both public and private, at happy and unhappy times. Even though I’ve had a lot of looks and stares, tonight dispels all of that bad vibe. It was my first time eating at Fongs tonight. I spent some time in the booth nursing my grumpy baby before getting up early to avoid disturbing the other diners.
“The waitress gave this receipt to my hubby. I couldn’t talk because I was so upset. I don’t deserve a pat on the back for feeding my child, but it felt amazing. The final words of the letter were, “It’s amazing how women can empower and feel for one another.
The message was written by waitress Bodi Kinney, who told KCCI 8 News in Des Moines, “We need to come together and support each other when it comes to nursing our children.”
