SEQUELS: Dead Hero
SEQUELS Dead-Hero Oklahoma City's wandering leopard, hungry and rain-soaked after his three days of freedom, sneaked back to the city zoo one day last week and gobbled down 8 Ibs. of doped horsemeat set out to trap him. Groggy and submissive, he was clamped into a cage, given a heart stimulant to counteract the drugs, 15 hours later was dead. By then, however, he was a public hero: the city park board refused to sell his carcass for $10,000 to a Washington, D.C. furrier; instead, he will be regally mounted in the zoo. Quick as a fox, and resourceful as a beaver, a local department store put leopard T-shirts on sale, sold more than 300 to the city's leopard-minded small fry in one afternoon.
