Making a Statement
Myah Autry returned a month after willfully entering the lion’s den and went out to the local press for the first time about the unpleasant experience. Outside a courtroom in Kearny, New Jersey, Autry was approached by reporters.
The woman was supposed to appear in court on a shoplifting charge. Autry was eager to speak with reporters and would go on a 15-minute diatribe about her peculiar behavior at the Bronx Zoo, which was frequently incoherent.
