Being- can't be omitted in this sentence?
Hello all.
While being fed by a new keeper , the tiger bite her.
While fed by a new keeper, the tiger bite her.
While the tiger was being fed - something happened - he bite her.
Do you think I could omit "being" in this sentence + the meaning of the sentence would stay the same? I think I could do so as the "while" implies the "past continuous" tense itself and therefore no "being" is needed here.
Is my idea correct? Thank you.
