Zoo de Granby Zoo de Granby news

Not a clue. There is a video announcing it on their Facebook page. Naturally its in French so I have no clue what they are saying. There might be details there.
 
I speak French and I confirm they don't say much apart from it's the return of Canidae to the zoo and to follow them for update on the exhibit construction and the arrival of the species at the zoo. :)
 
You are handy to have around when there are videos on Granby's Facebook page. You are probably one of the few Canadian members who can tell us what they are saying.

This is just so exciting! The dome reminds me of the aviary at the Queens Zoo that was a relic from the World's Fair. Love they'll be incorporating it into the new exhibit!
