The widow of the man who sent Zanesville, Ohio into a panic last week after he released 56 exotic animals will not get back the six animals that survived the killing. The Ohio Department of Agriculture issued a quarantine order which means the animals will stay at the Columbus Zoo for now.

[Jack Hanna, Director Emeritus, Columbus Zoo:] There's no way, over my dead body, it might be that pretty soon, those animals are going to go back there to the same conditions, and I'd wake up tomorrow morning saying, what and let's say they got out of here or something happen. Can you imagine what they'd think of not just the zoo, but the state of Ohio? Are we crazy?

Health officials in North Carolina say eight cases of E.coli have been confirmed in the state, and now, 13 more possible cases are being investigated. Four of the confirmed cases are children.
