Zoo animals make a break for it
November 15th, 2006 by admin
Yesterday, two cougars escaped through a hole in their cage at The Zoo Northwest Florida in Gulf Breeze. They made it less than 200 feet before being shot with tranquilizer darts. The incident happened one day after an employee at the zoo was clawed by a leopard, and less than a week after a chimpanzee was spotted in a field in Gulf Breeze (Zoo officials confirmed that the animal was likely a chimpanzee, but said that their chimpanzees were accounted for). Something odd is going on in Gulf Breeze.
