This time, the “suspicious contents” of a PostNet package at a Pretoria branch turned out to be several live reptiles.
This is starting to smell a lot like the East Rand version of ‘Tiger King’.
A tiger was spotted roaming around Edenvale early this morning but has now been recaptured.
Of the 56 wild animals – including six black bears, two grizzly bears, nine male lions, eight lionesses, one baboon, three mountain lions, 18 tigers, and two wolves – that escaped their private wildlife sanctuary in Zanesville, Ohio, only six were rescued; the rest have been shot by local authorities.
As many as 48 wild animals, including lions, tigers, bears, wolves and cheetahs could be on the loose in the vicinity of Zanesville, Ohio, after they escaped from a private wildlife sanctuary, police said last night. Officer’s say they have shot 25 of the animals so far, but it’s not clear exactly how many escaped, or where they are now.
