Wildlife Conservationist Mauled By Her Own 600lb Tigers At An Animal Sanctuary

A California-based wildlife conservationist who got attacked by two of her own tigers is currently suffering cuts and puncture wounds.

Patty Perry, 66, who is the founder of Wildlife Environmental Conversation, WEC was in the tiger’s cage at the Animal Sanctuary In Moorpark over the weekend when the happy moment took a terrifying turn.

On of the tigers, a Bengal wrapped its paws around Perry’s leg and dragged her to the ground while another pounced on her pulling at her with its claws.

Hurriedly, the Sanctuary staff pulled Perry out, but not before she suffered cuts and puncture injuries on her head and shoulder.  Micheal Bradbury, an attorney for WEC, revealed that Ms. Perry, however, doesn’t believe the 600lb animals planned to harm her.

‘A lot of individuals I am sure that witnessed it was terrified thinking the worst. Perry said it was apparent they were playing with her because they do love her. She raised them from babies.’ Bradbury said while speaking to KABC.

He added: ‘Perry is heartbroken with the incident which uncovered during an event for donors. She plans on returning to the Sanctuary to visit the tigers again, once she’s released from the hospital.’ Nevertheless, WEC is home to over 50 animals, including Leopards, Birds of prey and Zebras.
