After escaping from a Moscow private zoo, a vicious monkey assaulted a young Ukrainian war refugee, leaving the youngster struggling for her life.
As the toddler’s parents struggle to release her from the grasp of the freed pet, the animal can be seen on film savagely attacking the hapless child.
After the horrible incident in an affluent region close to Russia’s capital, the child named Paulina is currently receiving serious treatment.
Her injuries are deemed “serious.”
She experienced severe blood loss in addition to arm and leg abrasions.
When the girl’s parents heard her screams, they hurried to save her. Nevertheless, even as she was dragged away from the primate, the monkey continued to assault her.
According to one account, “The parents rushed to the screams and laboriously removed their daughter from the animal’s grasps.”
The monkey scaled the fence to get away from a millionaire’s “pet zoo” on the property next door.
Then, while Paulina was on a stepladder near a garden swimming pool, it attacked her. The attack was caught on CCTV.
The tiny girl is attacked by the money alone while other kids are seen fleeing. The toddler is shown being pinned to the ground by the monkey on surveillance footage.
The girl’s mother is seen frantically grabbing her kid and yanking her away from the monkey as she runs around the side of the pool.
The primate swings about as it tries to grab on to its treasure as the creature clings to the girl even as the mother drags her away.
For a brief while, she is able to release her daughter before it rushes at them once more. At that time, the girl’s father can be seen joining the fight. The monkey resists his attempts to kick it away from his wife and daughter.
It seems like the parents have managed to fend off the money at this stage. They proceed to move away from the camera, but as they do, the monkey pursues them, catching hold of the young child once more and attempting to yank her away from her mother.
Paulina received severe injuries and was kept in intensive care as the parents worked to liberate their daughter from the monkey.
According to rumors, the rich neighbors in Terpigorievo hamlet also maintain wolves, elephants, and other exotic creatures in their personal zoo.
The victim was identified as a kid who had fled the conflict in Ukraine.
The girl’s parents are close acquaintances with the house owner where the attack occurred.
They had provided the family with sanctuary from the conflict that Russian President Vladimir Putin had sparked in February.
The parents reported the awful incident, and the police are now looking into it.
The wife of a well-known Moscow lawyer is rumored to be the zoo’s owner.
There is an ongoing criminal inquiry.
