Escaped lynx back in captivity

A lynx that escaped from Dartmoor Zoo in Devon has been captured - after more than three weeks on the run.

The Carpathian lynx, the size of a large domestic cat, was found after walking into a humane trap and is now back at the zoo.

Zoo owner Ben Mee told BBC Radio Devon it was "a huge relief" to have got the animal back.

He said that they had been "living in the hope" that he would wander into a trap looking for food.

Flaviu was found near the Hemerdon Plantation woodland which is close to the zoo.
