"BOSTON - Where does a 300-pound gorilla go? In Little Joe's
case, anywhere he wants. At least for a few minutes.
Officials at the Franklin Park Zoo in Boston say Little Joe had a
taste of freedom Wednesday. The gorilla managed to climb out of the
moat that surrounds his exhibit just after the zoo opened.
A group of teens on a summer work program spotted Little Joe. Zoo
officials say the teens and a family were quickly evacuated from
the area.
But the gorilla in their midst didn't last long.
Zoo officials say after about 10 minutes, Little Joe climbed back
into his enclosure.
Officials are now investigating how the gorilla was able to make a
monkey out of the zoo keepers. "
