Woman Fights Off Tiger With Bare Hands To Save Baby Son

25-year-old Archana Choudhary was in a field on the outskirts of the Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve, when a fully-grown tiger appeared from the bushes and began to drag her one-year-old into the undergrowth.

Archana managed to wrestle her son away from the tiger, receiving serious injuries to her back, waist and arms in the process, as well as a punctured lung.

Her screams brought locals running and they chased the tiger away with sticks before rushing the young mother to hospital. Amazingly, her son had only minor injuries, and both are expected to make a full recovery.
