A woman has been attacked by a randy stag while livestreaming at a petting zoo. The victim was smashed from behind while she fed animals on the livestream. The stag, said to weigh over 30 stone, charged without warning inside the deer pen.
She was knocked to the ground and curled into a ball in a corner as the animal kept attacking. Her husband ran in, drove the stag away, and managed to drag her out.
Footage circulating online shows the woman being toppled and then curling against a wall as the animal charged in. The attack happened at a petting zoo in Baoji in Shaanxi Province, China.

The victim’s husband, named only as Mr Shi, said the stag was in rut. He told reporters: “My wife was in the pen feeding the deer, the stag was in heat and rammed her.
“I went over, drove it away, and pulled her out. She has soft-tissue injuries in several places.”
He warned others not to turn their backs during the breeding season. “If you go in when a stag is in rut, face it.

“And do not run in a straight line.” There have been no further updates on the woman’s current condition.
Park managers and local police have issued no public statement. Stags turn aggressive in the autumn rut and can attack even people they see every day.
Meanwhile, several baby goats were infected with rabies, prompting health officials to issue an urgent warning to families who were potentially exposed, the Daily Star previously reported.
The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, in the USA, issued an urgent public health alert after multiple baby goats from a mobile petting zoo tested positive for the deadly virus.

State health officials had been trying to locate and assess anyone who had direct contact with the animals. The infected goats belonged to Farm Adventures, a travelling petting zoo based in Harmony, North Carolina.
Officials say the incident began in late July when a wild skunk got into the pen where the baby goats were being kept. Because the goats were too young to receive the standard rabies vaccine, they were unprotected.
Zoo operators were initially unaware the animals had been bitten. Weeks later the goats began showing signs of illness and one died.
Lab tests later confirmed rabies in three of the animals, while a fourth goat was not tested but was highly presumed to be infected.
