KIEV (Reuters) - A man shouting that God would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in Kiev zoo after he crept into the animal's enclosure, a zoo official said on Monday.

"The man shouted 'God will save me, if he exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions," the official said.

"A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery."


This is why I get up in the morning, folks.

I just hope the lion isn't put down for this.

Crazy Bible-toting activists.

Bubble + hearth didn't work I guess. Oh wait, World of Warcraft starts to control my life.
