A bear had also escaped from the privately owned Eifel zoo, but was shot, a spokesperson told AFP.
German media report the animals were able to break out after flooding from a storm overnight.
The zoo, which was established in 1965 with only dogs, donkeys and a wild boar, is home to nearly 400 animals and is visited by 70,000 people a year, its website says. (BBC)
