Pedro is back in his zoo cage after a week ' s freedom . Pedro , the truant , is back in his cage at the London zoo . Pedro is a bosted eagle who gave the Zoo authorities sleepless nights for a week after he managed to escape . He took up quarters in the zoo ' s trees and resisted every blandishment to which a hungry eagle might be expected to respond , until he noticed a wood pigon that had dived into the cranes enclosure . hen pedro lost his self control and flew to the kill only to be safely trapped in a keeper ' s net . Photo shows , Pedro safely back in his cage at the London Zoo . judging by the thickness of the keepers gloves , the eagle has not yet recovered his good humour . 28 December 1935
