Fluffy on loose

People running by you yelling in anger, children holding the hands of their parents crying, police officers with high-powered rifles frantically searching everywhere imaginable
This is the scene at the Durham Zoo in Durham, New Hampshire.
James Petronkis, of Newmarket, arrived at the Durham Zoo at 7:30 a.m. as he does every morning. “I knew something was wrong right away,” said Petronkis. According to Petronkis Fluffy was not where she usually was. The guard at the zoo brushed off Petronkis’ question as to wear Fluffy was. Knowing something was wrong Petronkis pulled the fire alarm in a last attempt to get the attention of zoo workers.
Petronkis was right, Fluffy was not in her cage. Fluffy was last seen when the zoo closed at 9pm the previous night reported Gerry Durrell, Zoo Director.
“Everything about her cage seemed normal. The door was shut and did not appear to have been tampered with, and the fencing was unbroken,” said Durrell.
Zoo staff along with Durham police officers are searching everywhere in the zoo, but Fluffy’s location is a mystery to everyone.
Durham Zoo’s chief biologist, Kitty Smith, said Fluffy is “extremely dangerous.” Fluffy was a gift to the town from its sister in Romania where Fluffy is from. Fluffy is one of five spotted leopards in existence. The spotted leopards were drove to near extinction in Romania due to their habit of eating children.
This is a main concern for according to Police Chief William Blair. The Durham Zoo is located in a residential neighborhood with an elementary school nearby.
“We have got to find her before3 p.m. If we don’t it could be a messy night,” said Blair.
The New Hampshire State Police and the state wildlife department along with the National Guard are aiding the town in the search for Fluffy. “The National Guard will be supplying five helicopters with infrared sensors. We’re gonna find this cat if it kills us,” said Blair.
If anybody should see Fluffy, zoo official s say to avoid eye contact and lie still on the ground. Fluffy may lick and sniff you, but as long as she does not feel threatened she will not attack.
