Taronga Zoo has been ridiculed after blaming an incident where five lions escaped their enclosures on a fence “integrity issue”.

An emergency situation was declared on Wednesday after one adult and four lion cubs were found outside their enclosure at the Sydney harbourside zoo at about 6.30am.

Staff and guests staying overnight as part of the zoo’s “Roar and Snore” program were directed to “run” to safe zones as a “code one” was activated.

Taronga Zoo confirmed at about 9am that the animals had been returned to their exhibit and that no staff or guests were injured.
