Owl at Minnesota Zoo escapes handler, is then killed by zoo’s tiger



A Eurasian eagle owl at the Minnesota Zoo escaped its handler, only to land in a tiger enclosure where it was killed, according to a government report and the zoo.

The owl escaped during a flight training session for a bird show on April 29 at the zoo, located in Apple Valley, a suburb of the Twin Cities. The owl didn’t return to its handler, but landed in an outdoor enclosure where it was killed by a tiger, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture inspection report dated July 1.
