An ostrich caused chaos on a busy road in South Korea after escaping from a zoo.

Video shows the animal named Tadori running across lanes on a busy road in the the town of Seongnam.

Shocked motorists were forced to slow down or stop as the animal dodged traffic at the Daewon Tunnel Intersection.

The ostrich briefly collided with a slow-moving vehicle but quicky got up and continued on its journey.

Tadori had escaped from a zoo named Bug City and was later captured by police in a car park 1.6 miles away.
