Serengeti Park in Lower Saxony: rhinoceros bull attacks car by zookeeper

She came away with the horror: In Serengeti Park, a woman in her car has been attacked by a rhino. It was not until May that a zoo keeper had been injured by tigers.



A rhinoceros bull has attacked the car of a nurse in the Serengeti Park near Hodenhagen and knocked over. The woman was not injured except for bruises, said CEO Fabrizio Sepe. A visitor who had driven through the area on a park-own jeep, filmed the attack of the 30-year-old bull Kusini. The video was published by the "Bild-Zeitung".

Sepe said it was unclear what angered the heavyweight rhinoceros on Monday night. Kusini rammed the small car of the nurse so hard that it rolled over three times. She got into a car of colleagues who came to her aid. "Nothing could have happened to the visitors," Sepe pointed out.

According to the information, the bull has been living in the safari park for one and a half years and is still getting acclimated. He was allowed to enter the grounds only in the morning and in the evening when there were park-own vehicles, but no visitors with their own cars. Kusini was a "very valuable animal" and should have been used in the park for breeding, said the manager. But he was probably not fit for a safari park and should be delivered to a zoo.

It was not until May that an animal keeper was injured in the Serengeti Park, who had accidentally fallen into an enclosure with two lions.
