Leon disappeared from a checkpoint nearly 150 miles into The Iditarod race in Alaska back in March, and efforts by the organisers to track him down proved unfruitful.
A sled dog who went missing during a 938-mile race across Alaska has been found after three months.
Leon disappeared from a checkpoint nearly 150 miles into The Iditarod back in March, and efforts by the organisers to track him down proved unfruitful. Photos were released on the race's blog during efforts to find him, and people were encouraged to get in touch with information on his whereabouts. Residents in the Alaska city of McGrath, more than 120 miles south of the checkpoint where Leon escaped from, eventually reported sightings of the canine last month and went about trying to catch him by leaving food out.
He was finally captured on Saturday morning, the Iditarod Trail Committee said, and will be picked up by his French musher Sebastien Dos Santos Borges and returned to France.Leon is said to be"understandably skinny but seemingly healthy" and will see a vet and get a health certificate before flying back to France, said Iditarod spokeswoman Shannon Markley.
