The red panda which went missing from the Wildlife Park last month has been returned.
Kush was reported missing after a large branch fell down in his enclosure on October 17th, allowing him to climb out.
Teams from the Wildlife Park searched extensively in the surrounding area for weeks, with numerous sightings reported, including near James Gale's house.
Today Kush was returned, after being spotted heading into a bush by Jordan Brown.
Widlife Park Manager Kathleen Graham said: 'We are very pleased to confirm that Kush the male Red Panda was located in Sulby Glen and has been safely retrieved by staff and helpers.
'He looks in good health and we will keep him in the off show area initially to check his health and weight before he goes back out into the enclosure.
'Staff would like to thank the public for calling in sightings of Kush, and all their concern.
'I would like to thank all the staff for a great team job, James the Parks neighbour for all his efforts and help also Susan for being so kind and helpful while we did the retrieval operation in her garden!
'Staff are all delighted and relieved to have him back safe where he is cared for.'
Jordan managed to film Kush on video.
