You must be careful here. Virtually all the earlier cited "police said" and "zoo officials said" reports turned out to be false.
There's a lot at stake here and people tell lies to protect their stuff.
Oh please. I’m not “claiming” any evidence. If true, it’s a good question, wouldn’t you say? Personally, I think those two “yoots” were up to no good. What exactly that might have been, we don’t know-—yet.
