HEADLINE: Tokyo zoo worried about rhino on loose CAPTION: A Tokyo zoo stages an emergency drill on how to respond if rhinoceros were to escape from their enclosures, a real worry for zoo officials in a country that is one of the most earthquake-prone places in the world. (Feb. 8) [Notes:Feb. 8, 2012] [Notes:APTN] [Notes:Tokyo] IT IS NOT SOMETHING YOU SEE COMING DOWN THE STREET EVERYDAY ... BUT THIS IS A TOKYO ZOO ... WORRIED ABOUT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IF AN EARTHQUAKE STRUCK ... AND RHINOS ESCAPED. TWO EMPLOYEES DRESSED UP AS A RHINOCEROS ... THEN THE DRILL STARTED. IF DANGEROUS AND WILD ANIMALS DO GO LOOSE ... NETS WILL PLAY A PART. BUT BE CAREFUL ... THIS DRILL TOOK DOWN A ZOO WORKER. [Notes:NATS UP Japanese] THE ZOO'S DIRECTOR SAYS A lesson was learned after the disaster at the nuclear power plant (in Fukushima). We should never be too confident about security measures, so it is important to put in practice in daily operations to be prepared for something that is unexpected. A FAKE RHINO COMING DOWN THE STREET ... UNEXPECTED FOR SURE. BUT LIFE SEEMED TO GO ON AT THE ZOO ... A REAL RHINO CHEWED ... A ZEBRA RAN. SOON, A TRANQUILIZER DART FINDS ITS WAY INTO THE ANIMAL CREATION ... LETTING EMPLOYEES MOVE IN, NETTING THEIR PRIZE.
