Sydney's Taronga Zoo locked down after five lions break out of enclosure

Taronga Zoo in Sydney was forced to lock down after five lions escaped from their enclosures which caused panic with their keepers.

The incident happened at around 6.30am local time on Tuesday, November 2, where one adult and four cubs were located outside of their main exhibit.

This forced everyone who was on site to move into "safe havens" as the "significant incident" was swiftly dealt with by staff. No visitors were in the park at the time of the escape, however, guests can stay in a number of different accommodation at the venue.
