Five Lions Escape Enclosure at Taronga Zoo

TARONGA ZOO LIONS ESCAPE
Early this morning staff at Taronga Zoo in Sydney sounded the alarm after they found that their lions had gone on an unexpected adventure. Staff quickly raced guests staying in the Zoo's accommodation to safe zones away from the enclosure and called the police for assistance. Thankfully no people or lions were hurt in the ordeal and once the lions were secured again, the Zoo opened to the public as per usual to some surprised visitors. The lion enclosure is now closed off to the public and will stay that way until staff work out how the lions escaped.
TAYLOR SWIFT
Taylor Swift's new album keeps breaking records. She's made history as the first artist to claim the entire top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her new album, Midnights has been a huge smash it had the biggest first week of sales of any album this year. And she's pretty happy about it all.
FARM KIDS
We find out about a small school in rural NSW where they're growing and harvesting their own crops.
SALTY COMPETITION
Forget the Melbourne Cup up here in the NT, it's the annual croc race that's snapping up the attention!
HIGH HOPES
Now this giraffe knows a thing or two about travel. 3-year-old Inkosi's journeyed from Perth all the way to Monarto Safari Park near Adelaide. He'll be joining the zoo's breeding program. The long trip has been months in the making, with daily crate training to prepare the four-metre giraffe for the journey.
HALLO-WORM
This is exactly what it looks like a giant walking worm! Well except it's model Heidi Klum underneath. But she's pretty dedicated to the whole worm thing. The model is famous for her incredibly dedicated Halloween costumes.
