A jaguar attacked a woman who crossed a barrier while trying to take a photo at a US wildlife park.
Authorities at the Wildlife World Zoo in Arizona said emergency responders took the woman to hospital to treat cuts on one of her arms and hand.
Zoo officials said the jaguar never got out of her enclosure and would not be put down because of the incident, which is being fully investigated.
Please understand why barriers are put in place. Sending prayers to the family tonight. pic.twitter.com/2MPb8bXhwR
