Chris Jones's Esquire story about the night Terry Thompson turned his menagerie loose is a "Notable Narratives" pick on Nieman Storyboard. Exotic animals roamed as police tracked them down: "Jones doesn’t waste words telling readers how to feel about what happens. Instead, he sticks with the momentum of events on the ground, delivering the unforgettable image of a tiger lit by headlights stripped down to its 'disrobed spine' by a bullet."
