Title: Zookeeper takes own life turns out exotic animals
Post by: gobbler74 on October 19, 2011, 02:07:05 PM
Its a shame most had to be killed but the lions and Tigers could have been serious trouble with nearby schools. The story says there is a mountain Lion a bear and a monkey still on the loose..

Just seen on the news that all but 2 of the animals had been killed or captured. 1 of the animals still at large is a baboon with herpies.  :TooFunny:

I heard someone came to his has and shot him then let the animals out. The victim had a bullet hole in his back.? not sure though. Also a gorilla attacked a lady and she had to get plastic surgery done... A grizzly bear still lose is bad news

Sad day for sure. The man I heard was having some real trouble's and I guess it all came to. Looks like are Govener is now going to pass some wild animal law about owning these kind of animals . Wish they could have saved most , but hey safty first. And the radio today said the monkey has hep B. Hope they shoot that one soon . Lol  Crazy how fast now the Columbus zoo would take em when the people that owned the animals couldn't find a zoo .

Just want to let all of you know it was not this Terry Thompson that did that, I am still alive and kicking. No animal would ever make me take my own life. Had a lot of friends call to see if I had moved to OHIO,told them nope still in Florida. LOL

Saw a few crazy photos of this and heard an interview with law enforcement. The Sheriff (I think) sounded like he had a tough night.
