Wife Uses Soup Spoon To Save Husband From Tiger
A man in Malaysia is still alive thanks to a courageous effort from his wife. The U.K.'s "Orange" news is reporting that Tambun Dedin was out hunting squirrels when he was attacked by a tiger. His wife, Han Besau, heard his screams and was able to chase away the animal with a soup spoon. Dedin was taken to the hospital for cuts, but says he would have been killed if it wasn't for his wife. He remarks, quote, "I had to wrestle with it to keep its jaws away from me, and it would have clawed me to death if my wife had not arrived." The tiger has since been moved deeper into the jungle where it will not be a threat to people.
