became irrepresslble and had 10 be shot,
He was so determined to have his lib
erty that he would tear down every
barrier that his keepers would put up.
He climbed up the smooth wall that
surrounds his pit and scaled the fence.
The men caught him and put him back
and he got out again. The next time
a high sheet Of tin was fastened
around the top Of the fence but Nero
tore It down and then shambled over
to the poultry yard, He played havoc
there, devouring several Belgian hares
and number Of little pigeons, He was
bearing down on an Angora goat when
the attendants threw moose over his
head and dragged him into the noun
tain lion cage. The next morning he
had removed all OF the braces inside the
cage md was gnawing on the wood
work. The attendants saw that Nero
was inylncible as long as he was alive
so they took a rifle and sent bullet
through his head.
