A: It was really thrilling. A wild Siberian tiger in Heilongjiang Province entered a village, and the Siberian tiger fell on the villagers who were working in the field.

真够惊心动魄的, 黑龙江一野生东北虎进村, 东北虎扑倒正在田间工作的村民。

A: The villagers didn't believe it at first. Later, many people saw the tiger enter the village with their own eyes.

村民们开始都不相信, 后来很多人亲眼看见老虎进村。
