School teacher Joanne Cabban, a beloved member of the Parkes and Forbes communities, was visiting her sister and brother-in-law's zoo in Queensland on July 6 when the incident occurred.

Ms Cabban was attacked by a lion at the Darling Downs Zoo in Pilton, Queensland, resulting in the loss of her arm.
She was flown to Brisbane's Princess Alexandra Hospital by LifeFlight on Sunday after the attack.
Her brother-in-law and owner of Darling Downs Zoo, Steve Robinson, said that they are not entirely sure of the exact events that led to the tragic attack.

But Mr Robinson told ACM he wants to make it clear that Ms Cabban "was not in the cage with the lion" when she was mauled.
He said this is the first time he has ever experienced an incident of this magnitude.
"This will live with us all forever," he said.
'Enormous outpouring of love'
He said while Ms Cabban is not completely lucid yet, she is in a stable condition, recovering in hospital and receiving "an enormous outpouring of love and support".
"[There's been] an enormous outpouring of love and support, particularly for Jo but also for the zoo.
"The staff who were at the scene just after the incident were magnificent at the time, but are feeling it now."
Mr Robinson told media that a lion keeper had saved his sister-in-law's life by using a belt as a tourniquet after the attack.
He said at this stage, all they know for sure is everything happened in a split second and they won't know more until Ms Cabban is in a state where she can recall the events.
But for now, the main focus is on Ms Cabban making as full a recovery as possible, mentally and physically.
Queensland workplace health and safety authorities are investigating the incident.
