TORONTO — The llamas are no longer on the lam and the yak came back.

Someone freed several animals early today from a small zoo in High Park in Toronto’s west end.

The yak stayed close to its pen and was easily ushered back inside, but police had to use crime scene tape to round up several llamas.

A wallaby was also safely corralled in the pre-dawn roundup.

Police say bolt cutters were used to cut through fences to free the animals at about 1 a.m.

Police are checking the tapes from surveillance cameras in hopes of catching the culprit or culprits.
