The woman who was attacked by a Siberian tiger after getting out of her car at Badaling Wildlife World in Beijing on July 23 is asking for compensation of 2 million yuan ($298,000) from the zoo, saying visitors were not fully informed of the dangers before entering the park.

The woman, surnamed Zhao, was interviewed by Beijing Times on Wednesday. It was the first time she has spoken publicly about the incident in which her mother also left the car to drive away the tiger attacking her daughter. The older woman died after being attacked by a second tiger.

Zhao explained her own exit from the car by saying she had been carsick.
