Wildlife park escaped wolf shot dead


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

A wolf shot dead after escaping from Cotswold Wildlife Park may have climbed an electric fence.

Visitors to the park were told to stay indoors when the female animal, named Ember, was discovered outside the perimeter fence at 11:00 BST on Friday.

The park's managing director said staff were too far away to tranquilise the three-year-old Eurasian wolf.

An ongoing investigation by the park has found an electric fence was not properly charged.

Earlier this year Ember gave birth to five cubs, the first wolves to be born at the park in its 47-year history.

Sad story there, I feel bad for the pups. I wish they hadn't shown that photo of them.
