A 37-year-old woman was bitten by wolves on the morning of Sunday June 23 at the Thoiry zoo, in Yvelines. She is still hospitalized, but her vital prognosis is not in jeopardy.
At 9 a.m., Sunday June 23, a 37-year-old woman who spent the night in a lodge in Thoiry park (Yvelines) went out for a run. According to initial information, she found herself in the American reserve, in principle reserved for cars, face to face with three wolves who allegedly attacked her. “She crossed the fence, the enclosure, which allows you to return by car“, relates Christelle Bercheny, CEO of the Thoiry zoo, specifying that this fence is “electrified“and a”two large doors“.
Park caregivers intervened quickly. Injured in the neck, calves and back, the victim was transported to hospital in absolute emergency. Carelessness or security breach? Christelle Bercheny affirms that customers are warned of the insecurity of the area. An investigation was opened by the Versailles public prosecutor’s office for unintentional injuries, entrusted to the Mantes-la-Jolie research brigade.
