Two of three escaped wildcats have been captured after escaping from a Berks County wildlife center earlier this week
DISTRICT TWP., Pa. (WPVI) — Two wildcats that escaped from a Berks County wildlife center earlier this week after high winds damaged their enclosure have been captured.
However, one is still on the loose as of Sunday morning.
The African Serval escaped Thursday night from the Cricket Wildlife Center in District Township, which is about four miles southwest of Bear Creek Mountain Resort.
Gusty winds caused a large tree to fall on their enclosure, allowing them to get out.
The animal has been spotted near the facility.
Cricket Wildlife Center says these wild cats are not dangerous to people or other animals.
If you see the wildcats, you are asked to call the Cricket Wildlife Center at 717-381-9893.
