Teen Made Cell Phone Calls to Mother While Being Eaten by Bear in Siberia - 4
by Editors
Tatiana Tsyganenkov of the village of Termalniy in the extreme east of Siberia experienced a living nightmare no mother should have to endure. Earlier this week she listened to her daughter being eaten alive by a brown bear and its three cubs via three separate, frantic cell phone calls.
From this story on DailyMailOnline:
Olga Moskalyova, 19, gave a horrific hour-long running commentary on her own death in three separate calls as the wild animals mauled her.
She screamed: 'Mum, the bear is eating me! Mum, its such agony. Mum, help!'
Her mother Tatiana said that at first she thought she was joking. 'But then I heard the real horror and pain in Olgas voice, and the sounds of a bear growling and chewing,' she added. 'I could have died then and there from shock.' Unknown to Tatiana, the bear had already killed her husband Igor Tsyganenkov - Olgas stepfather - by overpowering him, breaking his neck and smashing his skull.
Olga, a trainee psychologist, saw the *attack on her stepfather in tall grass and reeds by a river in Russia and fled for 70 yards before the mother bear grabbed her leg. As the creature toyed with her, she managed to call Tatiana several times during the prolonged attack. Tatiana rang her husband - not knowing he was *already dead - but got no answer.
She alerted the police and relatives in the village of Termalniy, near Petropavlovsk Kamchatskiy, in the extreme east of Siberia.
She begged them to rush to the river where the pair had gone to retrieve a fishing rod that Igor had left.
In a second call, a weak Olga gasped: 'Mum, the bears are back. She came back and brought her three babies. Theyre... eating me.' Finally, in her last call - almost an hour after the first - Olga sensed she was on the verge of death. With the bears having apparently left her to die, she said: 'Mum, its not hurting any more. I dont feel the pain. Forgive me for everything, I love you so much.'
The call cut off and that was the last Tatiana heard from her *daughter. Half an hour later, Igors brother Andrei arrived with police to find the mother bear still devouring his body. Badly mauled Olga was also dead.
Six hunters were sent in by the emergency services to kill the mother bear and her three cubs. The double killing is the latest in a spate of bear attacks across *Russia, as the hungry animals seek food in areas where people have *encroached and settled on their former habitat.
