Three extremely rare Burmese star turtles were stolen from Randers Tropical Zoo on Sunday.
How the turtles were stolen from the busy indoor zoo in broad daylight is still unknown. The authorities have been informed.
Zoo staff reject the hypothesis that they could have escaped themselves, suggesting the fences were too high to BT.
The zoo was going to try and breed the rare species, which has not been successfully bred in captivity for five years.

Historic prisons to close
Nakskov and Maribo prisons in Lolland will close on November 9, meaning police will have to drive an additional 100 km when they need to detain a suspect. The resident inmates from both the closed prisons will be relocated to Storstøm Prison on Falster. The decision was made as crime in Denmark has been steadily decreasing, leaving many prisons empty.
