A man in India was mauled to death by at least two lions at a zoo in Zirakpur, according to a report.

The man, who has not been identified, reportedly scaled a more than 25-foot wall at the Chhatbir Zoo on Sunday afternoon. He was attacked by two Asiatic lions “as soon as he crossed over,” The Times of India reported.

Staff at the zoo said they heard the man screaming when he was first attacked, according to The Sun. A lioness in the enclosure reportedly held the man by his neck while a male lion put its paws on the man’s head.

Zoo officials apparently saw the man as he reached the top of the wall, and attempted to get him to come down.

“However, he jumped inside,” the field director at the zoo, identified as M Sudhagarb, explained to The Times of India.

“The injury on his neck was deep. He was taken to civil hospital in a critical condition where he died,” Sudhagarb said.
