Twitter moments provide us with hard hitting news stories that keep us informed with what’s going on in the world…and sometimes Twitter moments just straight up have us laughing our a**es off. Today’s lmao Twitter moment is brought to us from Lünebach, Germany, from the Eifel Zoo.
Not much going on in Lünebach today. Just that a bear, two tigers, two lions and a jaguar have all escaped from the zoo.

These floodwaters helped 2 lions, 2 tigers, and a jaguar escape the Lünebach zoo in Western Germany. Residents being advised to stay inside. A missing bear has been located and shot. https://t.co/whBJFEzh7o

Obviously a flood is not funny and we do hope everyone is safe who was affected by it. However, there was a big misunderstanding as to what animals actually escaped the zoo. This is where it gets hilarious.
So… those lions and tigers and jaguars that escaped that german zoo? Now looks like they never escaped at all – they were just hiding in their enclosures.

So now only the bear escaped from the German zoo? The tiger, lions and jaguar were hiding in their enclosures after the big storms and drones were used to find them. Meanwhile, police scared everyone into staying indoors. Way to go, people! #raubtiere https://t.co/fetnwgBeFS

By the end of these tweets and stories, I was cracking up. Not only did none of the animals they thought escaped actually escape but the bear was the only one who managed to get out of its enclosure! Wtf is going on over there Germany? We’ll just keep LOL’ing with you guys until you figure it out.
