Man Mauled To Death By Lions At Indian Zoo After Scaling 20ft Wall

A man has been mauled to death by lions in front of two bus loads of visitors after scaling the wall of a safari park in India.
The man climbed the 20ft wall of northern Punjab state's Chhatbir Zoo, home to four lions, on Sunday and entered the restricted area where he was attacked.
Horrified visitors watched as a lioness called Shilpa held the victim by the neck and a male called Yuvraj clamped his jaws around the man's head.
Distressing footage has emerged in which one of the lions appears to be dragging the man around the enclosure.
Hearing his screams, staff rushed to try and rescue the man and sounded car horns to scare the animals away.

The animals that attacked the man were Asiatic lions - a critically endangered species and a major tourist draw.
Only around 500 exist in the wild, all in the Gir sanctuary in the western Indian state of Gujarat.
The authorities have not yet been able to contact the victim's family.
The zoo has stepped up warnings inside the premises and advised visitors to travel with an escort and keep vehicles locked.
