An orang-utan made a brazen bid to escape an Australian zoo by using a branch to short-circuit an electric fence.


Karta the orang-utan escaped her zoo enclosure before changing her mind


Karta, who weighs 137-pounds (62-kilograms), jammed a stick into the wires connected to the fence and piled up debris to help her climb over a concrete and glass wall.
Witnesses at Adelaide zoo described watching the orang-utan grabbing branches and pulling herself up onto the ledge.
