Norfolk - A woman falconer yesterday retrieved Foster, a vulture that had escaped from a local zoo. Ms Jo Lobb (21), who is Foster's handler at his home in Banham Zoo, near Diss, Norfolk, was brought in to use her gentle touch on the errant vulture.
After more than two hours of patient coaxing, Foster trotted towards her and calmly took the carcass of a chick from her hand.
