The Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World in Telford, which earlier revealed a capybara named Cinnamon escaped from the facility during the weekend, said a thermal drone located the animal in a wooded area about 650 feet away from the zoo on Tuesday.

"Unfortunately this area is extremely dense with almost impenetrable undergrowth that Cinnamon can easily move under but we cannot," the zoo said on social media. Zoo officials said they are pausing recapture efforts until Friday night to avoid causing stress to the capybara and potentially causing her to flee further from the zoo.

The post said Cinnamon is not in any danger from predators in the area and has ample access to food sources. "We have placed multiple live traps in that area and will be checking these multiple times a day but won't be conducting any further mass searches until Friday night," officials wrote.
