The park has been ordered to close for "rectification".

The park allows visitors to drive their own cars safari style through an open space where the animals roam free.

Visitors are cautioned not to alight from their vehicles.

A report on online news portal Sohu said that park personnel quickly rushed to the women's aid, but were too late to save one of them.

The younger woman remains in hospital with serious injuries.
