By -
 A woman has been attacked by a jaguar after "crossing over a barrier to get a photo" at a safari park in Arizona.
Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium and Safari Park said the unnamed victim suffered non-life threatening injuries to her hand from a female jaguar.
US media reports the woman was trying to take a selfie near the fence of the enclosure when the big cat reached out and grabbed her arm.
A witness said he heard the woman "screaming for help" and describe pulling her away from the big cat.
Adam Wilkerson, who posted a video of the incident on Reddit, described it as "pandemonium".
In his post, he said he was visiting the park near Phoenix with his family when he heard a young woman "screaming for help" and saw that her hand was up against the enclosure fence, in the grasp of the jaguar's claws.

"At that moment I put my arm around the girl's torso and pull her away. A couple of other people are there pulling as well. She lies on the ground screaming in agony."
 
Please understand why barriers are put in place. Sending prayers to the family tonight.

"The visitor sustained non-life threatening injuries to their arm from one of our jaguars. At the request of the family, paramedics were called."
