Russell the mountain goat busted out of the zoo and lived wild in Stanley Park for about two years, spending most of his time hanging out on the cliffs out of reach of zoo employees. Once Russell took up jumping on cars for sport, park authorities redoubled their efforts and finally captured the fugitive goat.
