Wtf! That's appalling. Hoping it's ok but fearing the worst given the black market for the shells...

Couldn't have been an easy heist though, damn. Hopefully the zoo ups it's security (although it's sad that they have to).

    I think i know the part of the zoo it was in. Its a heat light room with only glass fences, maybe abdomen height, the turtles are near the entrance. I remember thinking its actually quite easy to get to the animals in there, although theres always a zoo keeper or two in there.

    Its sad, because in that area you could feel really quite close to the animals. I expect they'll have to change things a bit now.
