Woman saves husband from tiger with a soup spoon

In the middle of the jungle, a brave woman rescued her husband from certain death at the claws of a tiger with a wooden soup spoon.

Tambun Gediu saw the beast lunged at him while he was hunting squirrels near his home in a jungle settlement, said an official of the state of Perak.

At that time, his wife, Han Besau, 55, heard his screams and ran off with a wooden soup spoon, and saw the animal over the man’s anatomy. So she decided, almost desperate, hitting on the head. The tiger fled.

Tambun is now receiving hospital treatment over his cuts on face and legs. He said he tried to climb a tree to escape, but the tiger dragged him down.

“I was terrified and I used all my strength to punch the animal in the face, but it would not budge,” he said.

“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.”
