VIDEO: The Wolf Keeps a City of 1.5 Million on Edge for 9 Days

A wolf that escaped from a zoo has been causing unrest in a city of 1.5 million residents in South Korea for nine days. The wolf, named Nyokgu, was able to evade search teams for nearly a week and a half.

While many on social media doubted the authenticity of videos featuring the animal, Nyokgu was indeed real. Eventually, the wolf was discovered approximately 4 kilometers from the zoo and was tranquilized for capture.

The animal is now in a safe environment, where veterinarians have removed a fishing hook from its stomach.
