It’s much kinder to hunt with a camera!
Here’s hoping that Berlin will make a full recovery & return to Duluth where she is very loved & missed.
The humanity of zoos? Not much of a life for an animal except for good, nutritious food always & medical care. Otherwise? I think they’d prefer to be free. <3 Berlin
