What madness! For 36 hours, the police in Berlin and Brandenburg hunted a dangerous predator that was sighted and even filmed in the middle of a residential area. Operation title: “Kleinmachnow is looking for a lioness”...

A crazy story – which was also reported abroad. Journalists from Austria and Switzerland traveled to tranquil Kleinmachnow, even the “Daily Mail” and “The Sun” reported on the wild Berlin safari.

Only to come to the conclusion at the end: Kleinmachnow is not looking for a lioness at all. But an ordinary wild boar!

So on Friday afternoon there was the all-clear for the south of Berlin and Kleinmachnow. But the story will continue to be told in the future. And one thing is certain: only Berlin can do something like this.
