A 25-YEAR-OLD man has been mauled by a tiger at the Bronx Zoo in New York City after he jumped into a tiger enclosure.
The man is in a critical condition in hospital where he is being treated for deep cuts to his back.
He leapt 20ft from the Wild Asia monorail, a train with open sides that carries passengers along the top of a fence past elephants, deer and tigers.
