In a statement Friday, the Greater Vancouver Zoo says the discovery of the one-year-old dog, known as Tempest, ends a three-day search and rescue operation. Nine wolves had escaped from their enclosure earlier this week after the perimeter fence was deliberately cut, the zoo said. One of the animals, a three-year-old female wolf named Chia, was found dead on a nearby roadside. The zoo said everything else has now been recorded. The zoo has not said where Tempest was found or provided further details about her condition. The zoo’s deputy general manager, Menita Prasad, tearfully told a news conference Thursday that researchers were “heartbroken” when they found one of the escaped wolves, a three-year-old female, dead next to Route 264 in Aldergrove. (Gian Paolo Mendoza/CBC) Menita Prasad, the zoo’s deputy director general, said on Thursday that nine wolves escaped after a perimeter fence and their enclosure was deliberately “breached”. Workers and police began searching for the wolves after the escape was discovered on Tuesday morning. RCMP are investigating the incident as a suspected case of trespassing and vandalism. The zoo in the Aldergrove community of Langley, BC, is set to reopen on Saturday. “Audiences will now be able to see Tempest reunited with her family,” the statement said. “We are so grateful for this positive outcome for Tempest, but we are still processing the loss of Chia.”
