"Neukgu, the male wolf, burrowed out of his enclosure at the O-World zoo in Daejeon on 8 April, leading to a nationwide search."
"Authorities nearly captured Neukgu after spotting him on a mountain, but he broke away from a perimeter set by rescue workers."
"Neukgu was found and tranquilised on a hill near an expressway after an hours-long search involving drones, police, and veterinarians."
"Social media was flooded with celebratory posts, including messages saying welcome back and Neukgu, it's dangerous outside the house."
Neukgu, a two-year-old wolf, escaped from the O-World zoo in Daejeon on April 8, prompting a nationwide search that lasted nine days. Concerns arose regarding his survival outside the zoo, especially after a previous escape incident involving a puma. South Korea's president reassured the public about the efforts to capture Neukgu alive. He was finally found and tranquilized near an expressway, undergoing medical examinations at the zoo. Social media celebrated his return, with messages welcoming him back and expressing relief.
