Follow these steps in order. The incident commander must be identified immediately. Do not attempt to capture a dangerous animal alone.
A step-by-step emergency response checklist specifically for animal escape incidents at zoos, covering the critical first minutes: species identification and threat assessment, coded radio alert, public area clearance, perimeter securing, capture team deployment, veterinary standby, and police notification for dangerous animal escapes.
An escaped dangerous animal is a unique emergency that requires a very specific sequence of actions. General emergency checklists don't cover the decisions that must be made — lethal vs. non-lethal capture, which zones to clear, and when to involve armed police. This checklist does.
