South Carolina petting zoo worker apparently killed by kangaroo after stepping into its pen to ‘roughhouse’ with it
The brother of a South Carolina petting zoo owner was apparently beaten to death by a kangaroo after possibly going into the Aussie animal’s pen to “roughhouse” with it, authorities said.
Eric Slate’s body was discovered inside the facility just before midnight on Friday night at 5-Star Farm near Loris — about 30 miles north of Myrtle Beach, the Horry County Coroner’s Office said.
Slate, 52, had a “history” of stepping into the kangaroo enclosure and “roughhousing” with it, which is what was happening at the time of his death, local council member Mark Causey told News13.
