Five-year-old recovering after tiger attack

The young North West girl whose arm was virtually torn off by a tiger, is recovering well from her ordeal. Five-year-old Helen Catherine Grant from Rustenburg tried to stroke the tiger at Predator Park near Sun City when the animal grabbed her arm. By the time her uncle could free her from the tiger’s claws, her arm was hanging by a thread. Doctors managed to successfully sew the arm back on and Helen is making a remarkable recovery.
