A 20-year-old Russian beautician was attacked by a pack of wild dogs who ripped her face, ripped her flesh from her limbs and ripped off all her clothes in the freezing of Eastern Siberia, according to a report.
Tatyana Loskutnikova was savagely attacked by the 10 dogs as she passed through the city of Ulan-Ude early Wednesday – before residents who heard her screams chased the animals away, East2West News reported.
The seriously injured woman – who suffered severe blood loss – was transported to a nearby house and then rushed to a hospital, where she was placed in a medically induced coma and on a ventilator, according to the outlet.
Her family said her face was “damaged beyond recognition.”
“The victim is in intensive care after the shock therapy,” said Dr. Igor Shpak, chief physician at the Republican Clinical Hospital.
“Surgeons, neurosurgeons, traumatologists, otorhinolaryngologists and maxillofacial surgeons are fighting for her life,” he added. “The patient was delivered to us in an extremely serious condition, suffering a hemorrhagic and painful shock.”
Only her eyes remained on her disfigured face, according to the hospital.
Loskutnikova had “several lacerated and bitten wounds on her face, body and limbs,” Shpak said. “The damage rate is extremely high. Her blood pressure is extremely low. “
Local Alexandra Andreevna, who helped save the woman, said she heard screams and barks.
“I got dressed, I went out at the intersection to see. It was a backpack lying on the ground, “she said. “Then I saw a pack of dogs and a person lying on the ground. There were about 10 dogs, maybe more. “
Andreevna said the woman stopped screaming.
“She was conscious, but apparently she couldn’t scream because of the pain,” she said, adding that she used a stick to beat the crazy dogs and hit a fence to alert others.
“I dragged her to my house. He was without clothes, only with boots “, said Andreevan.
“Her body was bitten in places by tendons and bones. And his face was bitten, covered in blood. The eyeballs were exposed, “she added.
Loskutnikova’s brother, Vladislav, posted a message that she had been attacked on the way to a clinic.
“The bites were deep to the bone, the soft tissues on her face damaged beyond recognition,” he wrote. “Tanya is a young and promising girl, she is only 20 years old.”
Police shot the 10 dogs whose remains are being checked for a possible rabies infection, according to East2West News.
