Three Raccoons Still Missing After Escape from Isle of Wight Zoo

One of four escaped raccoons has been captured, while search efforts using dogs and drones continue for the remaining three.

Four 18-month-old female raccoons escaped from Amazon World Zoo Park on the Isle of Wight, with one already recaptured on zoo property.
The raccoons, which arrived at the zoo only three weeks ago, are sisters and typically sleep during the day and become active at dusk.
Zoo officials have urged local residents to check sheds, bonfire piles, and trees, and to report any sightings without approaching the animals.
Tracker dogs and drones have been deployed in the search, and the zoo emphasizes that the raccoons are not dangerous but may be scared.
Residents are advised to contact the zoo directly if they spot the raccoons, as they are likely to be more frightened of humans.
