Giraffe spotted as ringleader in circus escape

Published by weirdnews at 9:08 pm under weird news Edit This

An Amsterdam circus had a small problem under the big top last week; dozens of animals escaped from their enclosures in a daring escape attempt, according to a Reuters news report. Police believe that the instigator of the breakout was extremely tall with a blotchy complexion, and known to be a strict vegetarian. Although the giraffe refused to talk about the event, it is possible that the pot-bellied pigs squealed after their capture, and authorities have surmised that the suspect kicked the pen open. Also apprehended were more than two dozen camels, a couple of zebras, and several llamas. Since this is Amsterdam, not Mexico, none of the animals were charged, although rumors abound regarding the giraffe signing an animated movie deal about the incident.
