Link – Jaguar mascot escapes leash, is shot dead after Olympic torch ceremony in Brazil

A jaguar used in an Olympic torch relay ceremony was shot to death after it escaped its leash and tried to attack a soldier, the Brazilian army said Tuesday.

Things are not going very smoothly in the lead up to the Olympic Games in Rio. I’m a bit worried about how the Games themselves will turn out. Usually we see some stories like this come out and then things pretty much come together, but it seems like there have just been more stories about things that could go wrong in Rio than usual.
