The suspect arrested in connection with the theft of two monkeys at the Dallas Zoo told police he 'loved animals' and planned to steal more if he was released.

Police believe Irvin is the culprit behind recent mysterious incidents at the Dallas Zoo, the Dallas Morning News reported. The most recent incident that led to Irvin's arrest involved the disappearance of two emperor tamarin monkeys, which were later found in squalid conditions at an empty home about 20 minutes away from the zoo.

Police also found a handful of cats in the home, along with 12 pigeons and some dead animals, including goldfish they believe were also stolen from the zoo, the Morning News reported. Prior to the disappearance of the tamarin monkeys, police were investigating a number of other suspicious incidents at the Dallas Zoo.

Then, zoo officials discovered that the enclosures of langur monkeys had also been cut open, though none had escaped.
