Something that should never happen at a zoo took place.

A child somehow got inside an animal enclosure.

Let us take a look at this heart-stopping moment captured in the United States.

At a zoo in Wisconsin, USA, a child is seen running across the grass and chasing birds.

The area the child entered was the "African Savannah Yard," home to southern ground hornbills, pelicans, eagles, and gazelles.

Zoo staff who spotted the child immediately requested an emergency response via radio, and the zoo moved all the animals to another location.

The child was reportedly brought out safely only after family members used a ladder.

The zoo is investigating how the child managed to get into the enclosure and is reviewing its related response protocols.
