For the second time in just over a month, a kangaroo has escaped an Ontario zoo — this time in Chatham-Kent.

According to municipal police, the animal got out of Greenview Park and Zoo, located in the hamlet of Morpeth.

Police say it was later tracked down several kilometres away near Ridgetown on Tuesday.

In early December, a kangaroo was loose in the Durham Region, then later captured.
