Visitors to the L.A. Zoo had to evacuate Saturday after an animal escaped its enclosure. Officials at the zoo said an orangutan named Bruno got out of its cage in the afternoon, but did not leave the area around its enclosure. Bruno is 29 years old, 300 pounds, and is one of six orangutans at the zoo. Born Free USA united with API keeps a log of exhibited animal incidents, which are more common than one might expect.
