Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) - The family behind Animal Planet's hit reality show, "Tanked" has gotten some of their stolen animals back.

Four exotic birds and four bearded dragons were taken from the Acrylic Tank Warehouse last week. Surveillance video, provided by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, shows a man throwing a rock through a glass door, and breaking-in to the warehouse. Minutes later, he's seen leaving with the animals.

It happened on Sunday January 27th, the same night that two nearby pet stores were burglarized in a similar way.

Police have connected a minor to the crimes, but are still looking for another person of interest.

On Saturday night, an anonymous call came from a woman who said three birds had been turned in to her. She returned them to the Acrylic Tank Manufacturing. But, there is still a bird and reptile missing.

If you have any information call Crime Stoppers at 385-5555.
