DALLAS — The Dallas Zoo closed Friday after one of its clouded leopards went missing from an enclosure authorities believe was intentionally cut open.
But zoo officials said Friday afternoon that they were still operating under the presumption that the animal was hiding somewhere on zoo grounds.
Dallas Zoo president Gregg Hudson said staff found a “suspicious opening” in the enclosure 4-year-old Nova shares with her sister, Luna, in the morning. Nova was no longer in the habitat.
