These were the surreal scenes on the streets of the Georgian capital, Tbilisi, on Sunday, as wild animals were reported to be on the loose following devastating floods responsible for the death of at least 10 people.

Three zookeepers are believed to be among the fatalities caused by the floods, while rescue workers were also killed, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili said Sunday on Facebook

One of them, Guliko Chitadze, lost an arm after a tiger attack last month, The Guardian reported.

"All relevant services have been mobilized and everything is being done as quickly as possible to return the runaway animals," Prime Minister Garibashvili said on his website.

The Associated Press shared this footage from the Georgian capital.

In the footage, a small bear can be seen climbing on an air conditioning unit.

What looks to be a tiger, or large cat, can also be seen.

Two penguins, a long way from home, are filmed swimming through flood waters.

Remains of a hyena were reportedly found on the premises of the Tbilisi State University.

The animal reportedly chased off a staff member who locked himself inside until the animal was shot dead.

No one was reported to have been hurt by the animals, but authorities are said to be trying to recover them as fast as possible.
