American woman mauled to death by a lion during a South African safari has been identified as Katherine Chappell, 29.' She was attacked through the open window of a vehicle while taking photos.
As Chappell took pictures, the lion suddenly leaped through the open window and bit her.
Driving through the safari park with open windows is against park rules. Witnesses reportedly said that both windows were down at the time of the attack.
“Witnesses say that both front windows were down the whole time they were in the enclosure. The other lions in the area watched from a distance throughout,” Lion Park operations manager Scott Simpson told the Mail Online.
Chappell's guide, 66-year-old Pierre Potgieter, has denied claims that he was driving with the windows fully open.
He said the attack was “dreadful,” and that he was still in a “shock and daze about it.”
