About
a week ago, news broke out an Indian man who kept a lion in his house in Lagos
as a pet. Residents saw the beast and many wondered how he managed to bring the
wild animal into Nigeria without being apprehended.
According to sources,
the Lion had remained at his residence for long until some concerned residents
raised alarm to necessary agencies to evacuate the lion.
While some people are
still trying to understand while someone will prefer a lion as hos pet, the
story of a lion that escaped from its cage became handy.
The incident happened
in Kano state Nigeria in a zoo. Authorities of the zoo quickly informed members
of the public not to be afraid because the lion only escaped from its cage and
not the zoo.
Residents of Lagos
watched with amazement how the Lagos state authorities captured the lion from
the Indian man’s residence to a zoo.
The wild beast was
injected and made unconscious, then about four men carried the wild animal like
a baby into a vehicle that moved it to a zoo.
While pictures of the
capture were trending on social media, the agencies involved did not bother to
inform residents not to attempt to try such on their own.
There are some
specially trained veterinary experts involved in moving the lion from the
public residence to a zoo.
