A 41-year-old man, William Chapman, died after entering the tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster, UK.

The Newsweek article contextualizes this tragedy within a history of enclosure breaches at American zoos.

The Newsweek piece is a secondary synthesis but relies on these primary sources; the details about the victim and location are consistent across reporting.
