German authorities have determined that there is “no acute danger” to people in an area on the edge of Berlin where a potentially dangerous animal was spotted, saying they no longer believe a lioness is at large.

A search turned up no sign of any such predator, and experts who analysed a video have concluded that it may have been a wild boar.
