Like ground squirrels, and peacocks all over the — place making a god-awful racket.

For all the good things I have heard about Assiniboine Zoo I honestly didn't find it much more impressive than the dumpy little thing we have back home. It was simply bigger and had a tiger. I don't think the tiger liked it. The Polar Bear exhibit will greatly improve it, but the entire zoo really needs a makeover.

The entire zoo is being replaced.
