After nine-day searchNeukgu, the two-year-old wolf who broke loose from a South Korean zoo and captured the nation’s attention, has finally been captured following a nine-day-long search.
Neukgu was captured near an expressway on Friday at 00:44 local time (16:44 GMT), according to the government of Daejeon, the central city where his zoo was located.
Upon a medical examination, Neukgu’s pulse and body temperature were normal, authorities said.
Hundreds of rescue officials had been deployed to find the wolf, and there were a couple of times when authorities came close to getting him – but each time the net seemed to be closing in, Neukgu would slink away.
