JOHANNESBURG - An American researcher mauled by chimpanzees in South Africa has been identified as a graduate student in Texas studying anthropology.
Andrew Oberle was in critical condition Friday after undergoing surgery near Johannesburg. Officials say the 26-year-old was giving a lecture Thursday at the Jane Goodall Institute Chimpanzee Eden when two chimpanzees grabbed his feet and pulled him under a fence.
Oberle is a student at the University of Texas at San Antonio. The school said in a statement Friday that "our hearts go out to Andrew and his family."
Officials in South Africa say Oberle had "multiple and severe bite wounds" and was dragged nearly a half-mile by the chimpanzees.
