Who's the master now? The terrifying times circus animals flip and turn on their tamers
For a number of years now, animal rights activists have slammed countries such as Russia and China for their daily torment of circus animals.
From being whipped and made to dance or hop over objects to even being electrocuted, there are a range of methods tamers use to degrade apex predators -so it's no surprise that sometimes performing animals lash out.
Earlier this week, a hoverboard-riding circus bear could be seen attacking a trainer in front of hundreds of watching children and parents in Russia.
The circus performer struggled to break free as the angry brown bear named Donut - weighing 35 stone - gnawed the stick he held in his hand to control her.
In 2019, costumed bears were forced to dance and perform leap-frogs in front of shocked tourists too frightened to complain at a North Korean circus.
Here MailOnline looks at some of the worst examples of raging animals turning on their handlers - who somehow lived to tell the tale.
