A tourist was mauled to death in front of his wife and children after he climbed into a live tiger enclosure to dodge the 15 entrance ticket.

The victim, in his forties and identified by his surname Zhang, had been visiting the Youngor Zoo in Ningbo City, in East Chinas Zhejiang Province, with family and friends.

Horrific mobile phone footage which has gone viral on Chinese social media, and which was later removed because of its graphic nature, shows Zhang being dragged around by the Siberian tiger.

Other big cats also surround Zhang as he tries to fight them off by kicking out with his foot, but the animals refuse to leave, with one biting down on his neck.

At the end of the clip, Zhang is dragged under the trees while employees at the wildlife park try to scare the cats away using firecrackers. According to the authorities, it took more than an hour to retrieve Zhangs body and he was pronounced dead in hospital shortly after.

One of the Siberian tigers was also shot dead during the incident, though reports have not confirmed whether it was the one that held Zhang by his neck.

Youngor Zoo has been shut for a day following the incident, with Zhangs family opting to hold his funeral the next day after the unfortunate Chinese New Year holiday accident.

It happened in front of his wife and children. Ningbo City officials have confirmed that Zhang and one of his friends, surnamed Li, climbed the zoos 3-metre outer fence in order to avoid paying for the 130-RMB ($18) ticket.

The pairs wives and children, however, did purchase tickets and entered the park legally, reports said.

Further investigation is now under way.

This is China second high-profile and fatal tiger mauling in six months following the death of a female tourist in the capital Beijing last July.

Jesus christ.

That would be a stupid thing for a drunk 15 year old to do.

For a FATHER to do in front of his own kids..... That's like a level of foolishness you hear in fairy tales.

It's always a shame when a tiger has to be killed due to someone's stupidity.

What's the logic behind that even? I could see if the animal got out of its enclosure but if some stupid person walks in there do they really expect the animal to not be dangerous and attack them?

I feel bad for the kids, the wife, and the tiger. Not so much for the grown adult who knowingly went in a tiger cage.

Those kids just watched their father be literally mauled to death as he kicked and screamed helplessly.

Those kids are fucked up for life man

Did he think the tigers would just leave him alone? Or did he not know he was climbing into their cage?

I mean, yeah he shouldn't have tried to skimp out on paying a ticket. But are people really acting like he deserved to be mauled to death because of it?

Jesus, some people on CE are disturbed.
