BELGRADE, Serbia (Reuters) -- A 23-year old Serb was found dead and half-eaten in the bear cage of Belgrade Zoo at the weekend during the annual beer festival.
The man was found naked, with his clothes lying intact inside the cage. Two adult bears, Masha and Misha, had dragged the body to their feeding corner and reacted angrily when keepers tried to recover it.
"There's a good chance he was drunk or drugged. Only an idiot would jump into the bear cage," zoo director Vuk Bojovic told Reuters.
Local media reported that police found several mobile phones inside the cage, as well as bricks, stones and beer cans.
His clothes were found intact? So he stripped naked before going into the bear cage? Sounds like foul play to me.

I fail to read anything about said beer festival...the guy was in the zoo after going to the beer festival? Or was the festival in the zoo? Or did someone think beer / bear are funny ? Magnum PI to the rescue!

I think you guys over-estimate the stupidity of things that people would do when drunk... maybe on acid, but then why would would the guys strip down before going into a bear cage?

Actually no, I don't play the games very often. I had a friend who told me about the site and some of the posts so I decided to check it out. I just never posted anything myself.
