Canadian man mauled by zoo tiger

Canada, October 06: A man got more then he bargained for when he broke in the Calgary Zoo overnight only to be rushed to hospital after being attacked by a tiger.

The zoo says two men snuck into the zoo after midnight scaling a 2.5-metre main fence topped with barbed wire.

A two-year-old male Siberian tiger hooked one of the men with a claw and pulled his arm through the fence.

Police are investigating and say they are considering charging the men.
