The NYPD is asking the public for help locating the woman who sneaked into the lion's exhibit at the Bronx Zoo on Saturday.
Police say they would like to question 32-year-old Myah Autry. Police say Autry entered the giraffe and lion exhibit without permission or authority on Saturday, Sept. 28.
Anyone with information is asked to call NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
In an Instagram video, the trespasser can be heard telling the animals she loves them. News 12 spoke with zoo visitors who said this was nothing more than a plea for social media attention.
The Bronx Zoo has called this a serious violation and an unlawful trespass.
