The woman who was filmed jumping a fence at a tiger enclosure at a New Jersey zoo — and then trying to pet the 500-pound animal — has been charged.
After the video was released, tracking down the woman took only 24 hours.
Zyair Dennis, 24, of Millville, was charged with ‘defiant trespassing’ for the August 18 incident and was given two citations covering general conduct for people climbing fencing at the zoo.
She faces a maximum penalty of 30 days in jail and a $500 fine.
Meanwhile, experts say the tiger displayed ‘predatory behavior’ and she’s lucky she wasn’t eaten.
