A rare leopard escaped from her exhibit at a zoo in South Carolina. The leopard, named Irina, was able to leave her enclosure and prompted an evacuation of staff and guests as a precaution. Irina was eventually tranquilized by zoo emergency response teams and returned to a secured area.

The incident occurred at the Greenville Zoo, and local authorities were involved in setting up a perimeter around the zoo. Further details about the incident, including information about Irina and the zoo, are available from the source. The leopard's escape and subsequent capture were reported by city officials, who also provided information about Irina's background and the zoo's response to the incident.
