In Northern Japan, a chimp escaped a zoo. The 24-year-old male climbed up power lines to try to get away.
Workers and animal experts tried to use a cherry picker to get the animal down, but that did not work, so a veterinarian shot the chimp with a tranquilliser gun.
After a moment, the chimp fell down. There were people on the ground who tried to catch him, but they failed. However, local media said that the chimp is fine.
