The animals included lions, royal Bengal tigers, baboons, leopards, grizzlies, mountain lions and bears. The local sheriff along with his team took tthe whole night to capture three leopards, a grizzly bear and two monkeys, while the remaining animals were shot dead and later buried on the farm. The residents of the neighbourhood and people of Ohio have expressed their shock and grief over the killing of the animals, though.
