Tigers at a Copenhagen zoo killed a man who had climbed into their enclosure for unknown reasons, a police spokesman said.
Guards sounded the alarm two and a half hours before the zoo opened to the public, after finding him.
The foreign-born man, in his early 20s, had a residency permit.
Cases of people sneaking into the zoo at night and trying to gain access to animal enclosures are not uncommon.
