Tiger kills tour bus driver

A RARE Siberian tiger attacked and killed a tour bus driver in northern China while horrified passengers watched.

The tiger pounced on Jin Shijun and dragged him into the forest after he got out to check on his bus, which was stuck in the snow at the world’s largest Siberian tiger-breeding base in the northern province of Heilongjiang, the official Xinhua News Agency said.

The bus was full of tourists visiting the breeding centre and Jin broke safety guidelines by leaving the vehicle, the report said.
