It was a case of elephants on parade early Wednesday morning at the High Park Zoo.
Well, not elephants, exactly.
Llamas were on the lam, wallabees and kangaroos hopped away and even a yak wouldn’t come back after someone cut the fence surrounding their pens.
"We could've had a yak or a bison in or back yard this morning," said zoo patron Scott Belair. "We live right off the park, so, it's a little scary."
Toronto Police were first on the scene and corralled the animals using yellow crime scene tape.
But the yak proved difficult to control and officers had to wait for zoo keepers to arrive before they could get the hairy beast back behind locked gates. Fortunately none of the animals were hurt during their brief early morning adventure.
Cops are looking for just one person, and it’s expected he or she will face mischief charges.
Dr. Seuss is not a suspect.
