"Ultimately, we won't ever know for sure one way or another because the animal just passed through our area in winter and we haven't seen it on any trail camera since then so we cannot get a genetic sample or anything like that to tell one way or another," the organization's Thomas Gable told Forbes"

Toledo zoo review
https://maps.app.goo.gl/uhfsLr15HwWeZEp98
I confess I underestimated Toledo. This is a top-notch world class zoo 👍. 🐊🐆🧸🐅🐒🐠🐟🐧🐯🦁🦓🦍🦏. My only complaint is that on such a hot day in the middle of june, there were very few working drinking fountains, and no water bottle refill stations at all. Personally I don't like spending $10 or whatever for a coke. So I just carry a water bottle and most places have water bottle refill stations these days. other than that, I enjoyed the animals and the aquarium specially the polar bears were fun to watch wrestling with each other in the water. And a lot of historic architecture in the zoo as well.
