Good news: Lion recaptured
(CBS/AP) SEATTLE - Not every wild animal story involves people running for their lives.
A lion got free at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle Tuesday, but it didn't get far before it was tranquilized and subdued.
Whew!
The zoo says the 12-year-old female named Kalisa got out of its den and gained access to a hallway. The park's emergency response team of firearms units and veterinary staff immediately responded with tranquilizer darts.
The lion was secured in about an hour. The zoo's two other lions remained in their dens during the animal's brief escape.
The zoo is investigating how she made her break.
