    There have been a lot of what seems to be stolen to order animals stolen from private collections recently, perhaps this could be related? Most have been large bird collections but I imagine anything would be game to them!

    according to the Daily Telegraph website they have found the 4 adults in Yorkshire, but the baby is still missing, no arrests though. Today's telegraph had a great Ariel shot of the zoo the grounds very mature these days.
