Get Carter

Or, more accurately, Karta. Karta is an orangutan at Adelaide Zoo. It seems that on Mothers Day she decided that she wanted a different perspective on things. So she stuck a branch into the electric fence, thus shorting it. Then she used shrubs, bushes and branches to build a ladder. She climbed up the ladder and out of the enclosure. After spending some time on top of the wall, basically long enough for the zoo to be evacuated, she then calmly returned to her pen. More a grand day out than the great escape!
