A man is killed after entering a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Multiple outlets report the victim was fatally attacked by an Amur or Siberian tiger—described as a male—after scaling a fence and entering the enclosure. The park remains closed for several days following the incident.

Several reports say witnesses observed the man walking up to the tiger before the attack. The Independent, Evening Standard and others describe footage believed to be recorded by the victim as it shows moments leading up to the mauling, with the video posted to social media shortly before the attack. The Guardian and other outlets name the man locally as William Chapman, while noting that police had not yet made an official identification at the time of reporting.

Other coverage focuses on questions about wildlife park safety. The Daily Express frames the death as prompting urgent scrutiny of zoo and enclosure security procedures, while witness accounts from other outlets add detail about what was seen in the moments before the attack.
