There was a series of animal escapes in Sweden too recently - a snake (called sir Hiss), two owls and some chimps - all in the news lately.

The owls were found by a librarian called Mr Owl (Uggla) out on an island where he said he knew they didn't belong - he had always been interested in owls because of his name.

Sir Hiss escaped through a lamp and the zoo had to close until he was found a week later.

The chimps were sadly shot upon escaping, which was extra sad since they had escaped before and their old handler had just taken them by hand and walked them back. They new staff at the zoo got scared and shot them instead.
