A black panther recaptured last week after prowling the roofs of a northern French town has been stolen from the zoo where it was held, officials say.

Zoo employees in Maubeuge found the gate of the feline's pen broken when they arrived for work on Tuesday.
...
A vet was able to tranquilise her with a dart. The panther, weighing about 20kg (45lb), was then moved to the Maubeuge Zoo.
...
The owner - whose name has not been revealed - is now being sought by the French authorities for endangering the lives of local residents.
