According to foreign media such as the Daily Mail, guard Erie Schoolov (44) began taking selfies to show his girlfriend at a private zoo in Parcent, Uzbekistan, at around 5 a.m. on December 17 (local time).
He opened the lock and entered the indoor lion cage and was filming, when three lions in the corner began to growl and approach.
Surprised, he called the name of a lion 'Simba' in succession and said 'Simba, calm down'.
As a lion approached close, he stroked it, and the lion appeared familiar, licking it with his tongue.
Suddenly, however, the lion began to attack Erie Schoolov. It was only two minutes into the cage.
He screamed sharply, and the camera that fell on the floor was still recording.
He continued to groan painfully, saying "Calm down" one after another. After that, the filming stopped.
Discovered four hours later by other zoo workers, Irischoolov was left with little body.
Rescuers and police who were dispatched after receiving the report came out of the open door, calming two of the lions in the outer courtyard and killing one.
Authorities launched an investigation into the incident at the time, checking the cages of all animals and maintaining security.
The zoo, which opened in June 2019, houses 10 adult African lions, five cubs, a brown bear, an eagle, and a cheetah, according to local media.
