| | Calgary Zoo - |
 | | The last time I was in the Calgary zoo was in winter 1995. |
 | | Man, that hippo was huge, and I was like a little kid, staring at it with my mouth wide open.Since then, the zoo has had it's share of excitement, when two marmots ran away from their cages and the hunt literally took a few weeks before they found them. |
 | | We first hit the Canadian Rockies part of the zoo, where there were mountain goats, wood bison (the largest land mammal in North America, it was 8' tall and eating the grass), owls, etc. There were grizzly bears, who had their back to the spectators and would occasionally flicker a paw. |
