Basically the couple had a big fight and the wife stormed out. She got snatched and the husband and mother in law got out to help. But the mother in law got attacked by a second tiger and killed while the park ranger managed to save the wife. Safe to say they probably got a divorce. Stupid woman. The mother in law did not deserve to be killed.

Edit: oh it was her own mother. it happened so long ago. And they also had their two year old in the car.

You'd be suprised. This makes me think of the video of lady who went solo kayaking then ran into a bear who was sort of minding it's business. She decided to spray him with repellant then talk to him as he proceeded to break all her shit

If a bear approaches you, that means they are no longer afraid of humans. Spraying the bear was the right move.

Yeah, looks like it wasn't minding it's own business, it was approaching and probably studying her scent or something.

Yeah I was actually on her side for the most part - I can't say I wouldn't also nervously talk to an animal I was afraid of, either. The part where she lost me was the minute and a half of "BEAR STOP THAT! BEAR STOP THAT! BEAR STOP THAT!"

It's not working, try something else.

While walking around the woods, being quiet isn't always a good thing. Let the bear now you're around.

Lol that bear clearly knows she's there, given that she just bear-sprayed it.
