A dog that looks like a lion has caused panic in Norfolk, Virginia in the United States.
The dog was spotted by residents as it wandered the streets near a zoo, prompting several calls to emergency services.
One alarmed caller said, ‘There was a lion that ran across the street – a baby lion. It was about the size of a Labrador Retriever’, reports the Virginian-Pilot.
‘It’s roaming loose in the neighborhood’, she said.
Virginia Zoo officials were soon contacted and assured local authorities that no lions were missing from the compound.
The ‘lion’ was in fact a labradoodle (a labrador-poodle mix) named Charles the Monarch who has been shaved to look like he has a mane because he is a local university mascot at Old Dominion University.
His owner says it’s not the first time Charles has sparked police calls as the dog is often mistaken for a lion.
