Members of the Organization for Liberation of Animals intent on freeing animals from human captivity snuck into the Como Zoo in St. Paul, Minnesota and cut a hole in the chain-link fence that surrounded the wolf exhibit, and called three local TV stations after succeeding. When camera crews and police arrived, they found the wolves lying around in the exhibit as if nothing had happened, despite a trail of raw meat left by their "liberators" to lure them out of captivity. "The exhibit is their home—it's where they feel secure and safe," says the zoo's director, Victor Camp. "It's where they get fed and taken care of. Why would they want to leave?" Referring to the animal liberation group, Camp said "Our orangutans are brighter than these people."
