The lion that escaped from the Kano Zoological Garden yesterday, October 19, has been recaptured.
The head of the zoological garden, Sai’du Gwarzo, who confirmed this to BBC Hausa, said the lion was found inside the cage belonging to goats. The lion had killed and eaten all the goats in the cage
“The rangers had succeeded in locking up the cage before the lion was shot with an injection which made him less harmful before it was captured and returned to its cage” Gwarzo said.
