Payout for man bitten by panda
Print Edition
A villager in northwest China’s Longnan City, Gansu Province, has been compensated 400,000 yuan (US$62,500) after being bitten by a giant panda.
On March 1, 2014, Guan Quanzhi, 68, of Liziba Village in Bikou Township, was bitten while chasing away a wild giant panda which appeared in the village, according to the Wenxian County court.
Guan suffered fractures to his right leg and ruptured arteries in the attack by the animal.
Relatives of Guan sued the county forestry bureau and Gansu Baishuijiang National Nature Reserve in February, after negotiations failed.
It was the first case of a protected wild animal attacking a human being heard by the court of the county.
An agreement of 400,000 yuan compensation was reached by both sides after the court’s meditation.
The Baishuijiang National Nature Reserve stretches across both Longnan City’s Wudu District and Wen County.
Baishuijiang reserve is one of China’s three largest giant panda nature reserves which are overseen by the country’s State Forestry Bureau.
