In 2009, a 32-year-old woman breached multiple barriers to enter the polar bear enclosure at Berlin Zoo during feeding time. Disregarding the moat and safety fences, she jumped into the habitat, leading to a harrowing attack. As reported by the *LA Times*, zoo staff and onlookers rushed to save her, pulling her from the water as one of the bears bit her repeatedly. Remarkably, the zoo chose not to change its security measures afterward, emphasizing that the incident was a result of the woman’s deliberate and reckless behavior.
