The animals from the small zoo located on the farm of wanted Puerto Rican drug kingpin Jose Figueroa have been sent to the National Zoo. The animals were seized and taken into the care of the local authorities. The farm and zoo property is at 25th kilometer of the Duarte highway. It was raided by drug officials, who are continuing their investigations after US$4.6 million in cash was found in a SUV suspected of belonging to Figueroa. Figueroa is still on the run.
Two ostriches, three small ponies, six horses, two African grey parrots and two cockatoos were sent to the zoo.
Officials report that the property, which measures about 47,000 square meters in total, includes a small but luxuriously furnished mansion. Authorities are also investigating 15 to 25 other properties thought to belong to Figueroa.
