Anxiety As Hyena Escapes From Popular Nigerian Park

Anxiety has mounted after the management of the Plateau State Tourism Corporation, PSTC, announced the disappearance of a hyena that escaped its cage at the Jos Wildlife Park.

This was contained in a statement issued by the corporation on Monday, in Jos after the animal was discovered missing.

The Jos Wildlife Park is known as one of Plateau’s topmost tourist attractions and a place in Nigeria where nature has been conserved.

However, the park’s management made the announcement as a cautionary measure to safeguard the public and help in apprehending the animal.

“The hyena is currently being tracked by our dedicated team of Game-guards and Park-rangers with the assistance of drone technology, the statement read.

“We assure the public that we are taking all necessary measures to locate the escaped animal and ensure its safe return to its enclosure soonest.

“We kindly request the public to remain calm and avoid any approach to the hyena if sighted and you can kindly notify the park authorities immediately on 09026927620 & 09131000945.

“We thank you for your cooperation and promise to update the public as soon as the situation is resolved.”

Anxiety has since mounted up since the announcement reached the public domain. See some reactions below:
