Forestry bureau puts out notice that tourists should stay away from Leopards and not try to get their picture.

Tourist thinks that's for other people he'll be careful.

Tourist gets close to get a picture.

In her defense, this is only the third recorded attack by a snow leopard ever, and the first without extenuating circumstances (one previous attacker was rabid and the other was toothless and desperate).

Not that I think she knew that, but I do and I'd probably have been mauled right alongside her (snow leopards are my favorite animal and I make poor choices).
