"Police have shot and killed dozens of exotic animals that escaped from a private zoo in Zanesville, Ohio.
Sheriff Matt Lutz said he personally gave the order to shoot the escaped animals, including grizzly bears, black bears, wolves, tigers and lions.
On Wednesday, Mr Lutz said police believe they have now accounted for all 56 animals except one monkey.
The animals' owner, Terry Thompson, was found dead at the zoo, and police believe he killed himself.
Mr Lutz said a preliminary investigation suggested Mr Thompson left fences open at the farm."

Pretty damn crazy.
It was a private Zoo. The owner released them and then killed himself. |
