A 24-year-old woman from Millville, New Jersey, has been charged with defiant trespassing and city ordinance violations after a shocking incident at the Cohanzick Zoo in Bridgeton last week. The woman, identified as Zyair J. Dennis, was caught on video climbing over a wooden fence and entering a tiger enclosure on August 18.
In the video footage, Dennis can be seen reaching toward the tiger before the animal made an attempt to bite her hand. She quickly retreated back over the fence and left the enclosure, with the tiger pacing near the fence after her departure.
