He Robbed The ZOO // The Aquinas Kasbar Story

Aquinas Kasbar broke into the Santa Ana Zoo after hours using bolt cutters to steal an endangered animal to keep as a pet. While his actions inadvertently allowed several lemurs and capuchin monkeys to escape, Kasbar made off with Isaac, a 32-year-old ring-tailed lemur recognized as the oldest of his species in North American captivity. After placing Isaac in an unventilated plastic bin, Kasbar ultimately abandoned the animal outside a Marriott hotel the next morning with a note requesting its safe return to the zoo.
