          @rumdu2 @BBCBreaking The place is in full panic ATM cos of flooding. Would be shocked if they found time to sedate it.

          @BBCBreaking @BBCNews Shame no-one with sedatives was nearby. Probably going to happen to a lot of the escapees.

          @BBCBreaking @BBCNews Shocking... Was it its fault that it was somewhere it shouldn't have been in the first place i.e. Zoo?
