Lion Escapes From Cage At Jos Wildlife Park – Beware!!

A lion has escaped from the Jos Wild
Life Park on Wednesday according to
Mr John Doy, the Acting General
Manager, Plateau Toursim Corporation.
He said the lion escaped “at about 8
a.m. while it was being fed”.
Doy said that the lion, which had
been caged since 1972,“ slipped
through the gate of the cage when it
was opened for its routine feeding”.
“The animal is still within the
vicinity of the Park but our fear is
that the Park is not fenced.
“We are struggling to recapture it,
but we want members of the public
to be vigilant,” he said.

The acting general manager said that
he had already informed all security
agencies to come to the Park’s
assistance.

We later heard that the animal has been killed by some vigilante group after being alerted, and that people can be at ease
