Ukraine: Teen-ager attacked by hippo after entering zoo cage pool

 KIEV – A hippopotamus reportedly attacked an 18-year-old woman after she entered its pool at a zoo in the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.  The woman, identified only as Yekaterina, ignored warning signs and dove into the pool with a female hippopotamus and its 6-year-old offspring, local newspapers reported Wednesday. The hippo picked up the woman with its mouth and shook her by the wrist before tossing her into the air. Three zoo visitors then rescued the woman, who was hospitalized in serious condition with broken bones and a concussion.
