The Dallas Zoo is working with the Dallas Police Department to increase security on the zoo campus following a string of incidents involving several animals and enclosures, zoo officials said.
“On Saturday morning, the animal care team discovered one of our lappet-faced vultures dead in its habitat,” zoo President and CEO Gregg Hudson said during a news conference Monday. Hudson said “an unusual wound and injuries” were found, which indicated the vulture, Pin, did not die of natural causes. “Given the recent events that have happened here at the zoo, the clouded leopard in particular, from last Friday, and the suspicious nature of this animal’s death,” the zoo alerted police.
The Dallas Zoo announced it is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and indictment of a suspect. Dallas police spokesperson Kristin Lowman noted police are working with US Fish and Wildlife on the investigations. This is the third incident at the zoo in less than two weeks. On Friday, January 13, zoo staff discovered a clouded leopard, Nova, had escaped her habitat after a section of fencing had been cut. The zoo was closed as officials searched for her.
