Ukrainian man is fatally mauled by bear at zoo
KIEV, Ukraine Emergency officials answer a bear in a Ukraine zoo fatally mauled a man who fell into its enclosure trying to photograph it.
The 27-year-old prey had climbed over a 13-foot fence to get closer to the bear at the zoo in Mykolaiv attached Sunday.
Zoo workers tried to stop the carry by pouring buckets of water on it and throwing loaves of diet, plastic bottles and other objects, the Emergency Situations Ministry says on its Web site.
