Lioness fatally mauls owner’s wife as clasp fails

In Tallassee Alabama a pet lioness broke from a weak galvanized clasp and mauled Margaret Haynie killing her. Elmore County coroner Dr. Joseph Benson said the chain was adequate but the collar clasp was not. Rickie Haynie bought the lion last week to breed cubs for sale to circuses. Police and sheriff reported the lion was killed after the attack.
