A hyena has escaped from the Jos Wildlife Park in Plateau State.
The Plateau State Tourism Corporation confirmed this in a statement obtained by our correspondent in Jos.
The statement, signed by the General Manager, Mr. Chuwang George Pwajok, says, “We would like to inform the general public that the hyena, which recently escaped from its cage at the Jos Wildlife Park, is currently being tracked by our dedicated team of game guards and park rangers with the assistance of drone technology.”
The statement further adds, “We assure the public that we are taking all necessary measures to locate the escaped animal and ensure its safe return to its enclosure as soon as possible.”
“We kindly request the public to remain calm and avoid any approach to the hyena if sighted,” the statement concludes.
