The Great Leopard Hunt

In 1950 a wild leopard from India nearly escaped from his grotto 

in the Oklahoma City Zoo. The zoo placed him in one deeper.  Still 

longing for freedom with heart-driven resolve, he did the impossible. 

Thus began his three-day reign of terror.  Not only making the local 

news, he made national news as well.  Searchers found footprints by 

a pond, but never the leopard.  What could cause him to return to his 

grotto at the zoo?
