Last time I photographed for the Calgary Zoo, it was for a much happier occasion. After all the flooding and damage caused by it, I was invited to take a few photographs to document the reconstruction process.

Sad to see some of the animals relocated and will have to find a new home.

You can still see the line on the wall where the water was... it got very high!
