Lions, Tigers, Bears Loose in Ohio

A dead lion near Zanesville, OH

This is horrific. How does a man who was just released from federal prison last month end up owning dozens of exotic critters and housing them on his "animal farm"?

The man, Terry Thompson, has committed suicide, but before doing so, he released all the animals including 18 tigers, 17 lions, and 8 bears, into the Ohio countryside. The animals had to be hunted and killed by authorities.

A wolf and monkey are still at large. Go, little monkey, go!
