Imagine a zoo, but some of the animals have gone missing!
People are worried and want to know where they went.
Someone filed a complaint, and now officials are looking into it.
The zoo says it had a lot of animals, but the records don't match up.
There is an investigation by the government to figure out what happened to the missing animals.
They are looking into it and will give a report soon, to find out if anyone did something wrong or if there was just a mistake.
They are checking if the zoo followed the rules, and also looking at the history of animals from years ago to see where the animals went.
