Series of Safari Incidents Puts India's Parks on Edge

Series of Safari Incidents Puts India's Parks on Edge

There have been several scary moments at animal parks in India recently.

In one case, a leopard scratched a woman's hand through the window of a safari bus.

It happened because the leopard climbed onto the bus and reached through a small hole in the net covering the window.

In another park, tigers attacked people, so the park had to close for a while.

A rhino even ran after a jeep carrying a mom and her daughter, who fell out but were okay.

Elephants have also hurt people, including mahouts who ride them.

Experts are worried about how people visit these parks safely and are looking at ways to protect both the animals and the visitors.
