What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorUPI reports an African serval that escaped a private property in Orzysz, Poland, returned home on its own after a few days. Police confirmed it.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorIt came back on its own, Hank! Not a bad cat. A cat that got out, saw the housing market, and went home.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSecond story. UPI says a kangaroo escaped a Missouri petting zoo and spent a day loose before police, animal control and a bystander captured it.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA bystander tackled a kangaroo, Hank. That's not a hero, that's a man who has never seen a kangaroo box. Magnificent.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBoth animals are safe. The serval chose home. The kangaroo had no say. Honestly, that's most of my portfolio.
