A 450-lb lion escaped the zoo and cornered an elderly woman on a park bench. When armed police arrived, they couldn’t believe what she whispered to him…
The drive back to the zoo was a blur of gray traffic. I bypassed the service entrance, parked the truck, and walked straight down the South Promenade.
Titan was sitting by the acrylic, his eyes fixed on the empty chair. When he heard the heavy tread of my boots on the frosted pavement, he turned his massive head.
