Searchers are trying to find a kangaroo that escaped from a zoo in Canada.

<p>It was a site that had people doing a double take a kangaroo on the loose North Osu. I've been working at the zoo for quite a long time. I started there when I was 13 and I'm now 42. So we're going on about 30 years and I have not experienced anything like this. The park supervisor at the OSA zoo says the kangaroo was destined for a zoo in Quebec. It was supposed to spend the night at the OSA Zoo when it somehow escaped its handlers as the animal handlers who were transporting this thing uh as they were trying to unload it into our warm room last night where the kangaroo would be staying, it jumped over their head out of the trailer and it has now escaped and we are in the process of tracking it down. Police receive multi reports about the kangaroo shortly after 730. This morning, a small team of volunteers began scouring the area including Dave Hutnick, who located the kangaroo this afternoon using thermal technology on his drone hunkered down at a farm about two kilometers away from the zoo and realized it was the kangaroo when it began to hop across the field. So we were actually able to track it into a brushy area where she kind of hunkered down. His security company has assisted with finding missing animals and people in the past. But this is a first, this is a brand new experience. It's pretty interesting. Now, the challenge is trying to retrieve the animal.</p>
