Yorkshire Wildlife Park will reopen tomorrow, nearly a week after an Amur tiger attacked a man who entered its enclosure.
William Chapman was fatally injured by Altai the tiger last Saturday.
Video posted on social media showed Chapman and Altai, which at one point grabbed and bit him near the middle of his back.
Yorkshire Wildlife Park, in Doncaster, evacuated the site and remained closed.
But the park said in a statement shared on social media this afternoon that it will open its doors to the public tomorrow ‘following the tragic incident’.
