In a Wizard of Oz-like twist of fate, lions, tigers, and a bear (plus one jaguar) reportedly escaped from the Eifel Zoo earlier today.
According to Buzzfeed, officials at the German zoo are searching the grounds in an attempt to find the animals.
While the big cats are still missing, the search team found the bear outside the zoo grounds and sadly had to shoot it. Officials are warning anyone that lives in the area to stay indoors until they locate the remaining animals.
