Bears eat wolf alive in front of horrified zoo visitors while pack desperately try to save her

Shocked zoo visitors witnessed a family of bears eating a wolf alive after it reportedly fell into water while playing with its pack.



Footage, filmed on a mobile phone by a guest at Dierenrijk in the Netherlands, shows one of the bears tearing the wolf a part, while other bears fight off the wolf pack, as they try to save their friend.



According to news site Omroep Brabant, the company that owns the zoo confirmed that the "incredibly unfortunate" incident took place.



The visitors who witnessed the brutal attack thought the bears and wolves were "just playing" until what they were seeing took a nasty turn.



Zoo keepers could do "nothing" for the two-year-old female wolf.
