As the officials reach the spot and see the man dangling out of the cage by his bloodied arm as the tiger grips it with his jaw.
“I’m going to die,” the man cries out.
“Do you got a tranquilliser," an official asks as they attempt to free the man from the animal’s mouth.
The 8-year-old tiger, an endangered species, was shot to death shortly after by the officials.
According to reports, the worker breached a barrier to enter the compound which houses the tiger’s cage.
After the rescue, the man, identified as 26-year-old River Rosenquist, was airlifted from the area to a hospital and is reported to be in a recovering condition.
He was recruited by the zoo with help from a third-party cleaning service.
However, it remains unclear why he entered in such close proximity to the tiger as the cleaning company is only required to clean restrooms and the gift shop.
