– Police are investigating possible vandalism at the Houston Zoo after workers discovered that someone had deliberately cut a four-inch gap in the mesh that covers a habitat for brown pelicans.
The damage to the habitat comes after a series of thefts and incidents of vandalism at other zoos around the country, including the theft of two monkeysAfter workers at the Houston Zoo discovered the cut in the mesh on Monday, they searched the area and found the animals inside were secure and safe, the zoo said in a statement Wednesday.
“The gap appears to be the result of vandalism. Out of an abundance of caution, all other animal areas were closely examined, and nothing similar was found,” the zoo said. Houston police were called to the zoo Monday afternoon to take an initial report, said police spokesman Victor Senties. The police department’s property and financial crimes division is handling the case but it was still “pretty early in the investigation,” Senties said.
