TAMA, Japan -- A Japanese zoo prepared for animal escapes by chasing a volunteer dressed in a lion costume.

http://images.ibsys.com/2005/0307/4259447_320X240.jpg

Zookeepers tracked the "lion" through the park Monday as zoo goers watched.

Zoo staff set up makeshift fences to contain the wild beast. If it was not a drill, the animal would be shot with a tranquilizer and quickly moved back to its cage habitat.

The annual costumed rehearsal is a favorite spectacle for zoo goers. Last year, the zoo practiced capturing a man dressed as an escaped polar bear.

All of the drills have been successful, zoo officials said.

And what exactly would happen if they weren't? Would the costumed employee actually leave the zoo and have to scavenge for his existence? :confused:

I don't know, but I bet it would be pretty funny watching a guy in a lion suit running down the street with a bunch of zoo keepers with nets running along behind him. :D

I wonder if he (she? No, no woman would be stupid enough to dress up like that. :D ) gets a bonus if he escapes? A bottle of Saki maybe?

I must politely disagree. In the town where I live, they have both men and women dressed as chickens out in the street shilling for the Old Colonel. All in all, I would instead prefer to be dressed as a lion.

It's good to know that if a toothless, bipedal lion cumbered with a heavy costume ever breaks loose in the zoo, the public will be safe.
 
What worries me most is the fact that they might be worried their zoo isn't capable of holding a lion.
