The lawyer for the former owner of Zion Wildlife Gardens says the fatal mauling of a zookeeper deeply affected his client.
Zion Wildlife Gardens Limited has been ordered to pay $60,000 in reparation to the partner of mauled keeper Dalu Mncube.
He was fatally attacked in May 2009 by a
tiger while cleaning the enclosure.
Evgeny Orlov acts for Patricia Busch and says this brings closure to the case and to the family of Mr Mncube.
He says Ms Busch was deeply affected and had a lot of affection for Mr Mncube.
