The family of a man who was killed by a tiger after he entered its enclosure at a wildlife park has paid tribute, describing him as "bright, warm and engaging". William Chapman, 23, visited Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster on Saturday and was attacked after going into the animal's pen. He was pronounced dead at the scene. In a statement, his family said that he had suffered from "significant mental illness" over a number of years and had been prescribed "strong medication". His family added: "It will be for the coroner to decide what part this played in his death." Tap the link in @BBCNews's bio to find out more about the story. #Tiger #Wildlife #Yorkshire #BBCNews
