SULLIVAN, N.Y. -- Two antelopes escaped from a property near The Wild Animal Park in the Town of Sullivan on Thursday, according to New York State Police.

At approximately 2 p.m., state police responded to 7591 Lakeport Road about two "personally owned, domesticated" Eland antelopes escaped from the property, state police said.

An employee at the property accidentally left a gate open, which allowed the antelopes to escape, police said.

Troopers checked for the antelopes but couldn't find them, police said. Employees are now looking for the antelopes, which are not a danger to the public, police said.

The property at 7591 Lakeport Road is owned by Jeffrey Taylor, according to Madison County property records.

Taylor is also the owner of The Wild Animal Park.

In 2009, a wallaroo escaped from Taylor's property and was hit by a car on the Thruway.
