Baboon escapes at Bush Intercontinental

07:37 AM CST on Thursday, November 11, 2004

From 11 News Staff Reports

A baboon is headed home Thursday after going on a little adventure at Bush Intercontinental Airport.

The pregnant female baboon escaped as it was being loaded into the cargo hold of a Continental jet at the airport Wednesday afternoon.

An airport spokesman says the lab animal escaped from a cage after the door popped open. The animal climbed up into outdoor rafters beneath Terminal C.

Animal Control and zoo officials were called out to tranqulize the baboon.

Somebody affiliated with the name Bush caused trauma to one of Gods creatures.

PETA will run an anti-Bush ad with this...count on it.
