Zoo Animals On The Loose In Tbilisi After Flooding
MOSCOW
— Residents of Tbilisi,Georgia, were
warned to stay off the streets on Sunday lest they encounter one of the lions,
tigers, bears or other beasts set free from the city zoo after floodwaters
devastated the center of the capital.
At
least 12 people died in the floods and 24 were reported missing, according to
Davit Narmania, the mayor of Tbilisi. “Not all the animals that fled from the
zoo have been caught yet,” the mayor was quoted as saying by Russia’s Interfax
news agency. “Therefore I would ask the population to avoid moving around the
city except in cases of acute need.”
It was
not immediately clear how many animals remained on the loose and how many had
been killed in the floods. A burbling stream that feeds through a narrow gorge
in parts of downtown Tbilisi turned into a raging torrent and burst its banks
after heavy rains on Saturday night, local news reports said.
Images
from the city underscored the anarchy. One showed peopleherding a hippopotamus along
a street choked with mud, after it had been hit by a tranquilizer dart. Others
revealed the corpses of animals amid the debris of wrecked cars and buildings.
And a bear was pictured perched above the roiling waters on an air-conditioning
unit.

A hippopotamus was swept onto the
streets of Tbilisi.
A
special police team was sent to the neighborhoods around the zoo to hunt for
the roaming animals, according to local television reports.
Some of
the animals were killed when they could not be captured, the report said,
including six wolves found on the grounds of a children’s hospital, as well as
a bear and a hyena. Some residents expressed indignation at those killings, but
officials said some animals were too aggressive to be captured.
The
director of the zoo, Zurab Gurielidze, called for an investigation into the
killing of the animals. “If an animal attacked people, it’s one thing,” he was
quoted as saying by Interfax. “I know that no order was issued to kill animals.
Some policemen exceeded their authority.”
Zoo
workers were quoted as saying that a full animal census was impossible because
parts of the zoo remained under water, but a popular albino lion called Sumba
was found shot dead on the grounds.
Helicopters
were swooping low over the city to try to spot the animals. Those missing after
the flood included 20 wolves, eight lions, and several tigers and jaguars,
Interfax reported. Only three of 17 penguins survived, the news agency said.
One
person who died while trying to save the animals, Guliko Chitadze, a 25-year
veteran of the Tbilisi Zoo, had her arm mputated in late May after she was
attacked by a tiger, Interfax said.
At a
Sunday Mass, Patriarch Ilia II, the head of the Georgian Orthodox Church, told
worshipers that the broad assault against the church by the country’s former
Communist rulers lay at the root of the disaster.
“When
Communists came to us in this country, they ordered that all crosses and bells
of the churches be melted down and the money used to build the zoo,” the
patriarch said, Interfax reported. “Therefore, the zoo should have not been
built there,” he said. “Many didn’t know this, but sin will not go without
punishment.”
