MIAMI, Fla. - A rhinoceros made a run for it at Zoo Miami Wednesday.

"Juanpur" the rhino escaped from his main enclosure.

Park visitors were moved to safe areas to prevent an attack.

Workers quickly secured all park entrances and exits so the 21-year-old male Indian rhino wouldn't completely bust out of the park.

Juanpur is safe and back in his home now.

No one was hurt during the animal's attempted great escape.

 

 

 

Last May "Archie" the rhino escaped his pen at the Jacksonville Zoo.

A manager at the zoo says Archie nudged the gate and it opened.

It took about 30 people six hours to get him back inside.
