Polar Bear attack at the Berlin Zoo!
Breaking News: This woman actually scaled the fence to jump in into the polar bear tank, only to have to be rescued. Her injuries at not life threatening, having got out in time.
The questions: Why on earth did she even think this was reasonable to do?
Why is it even possible to do this?
What does this potentially say about how people view and understand polar bears given the context the zoo creates? Did she think they were cute? cuddly? lonely? hmm...

I couldn't find follow up news articles on this incident except some suggestion that she was a little off. You would need to be to turn off your fear instinct.
