MN - At least fourteen animals drown as torrential rains ravage Duluth zoo

---
Keepers at the Lake Superior Zoo, which sits at the foot of a hill in Duluth, fear the actual number of drowned animals could be much higher as some cages remain entirely submerged in rain water.

All but one of the zoo's barnyard animals died in the flood, which claimed six sheep, four goats, one donkey, one raven, one snowy owl and one turkey vulture.

Police helped locate Berlin, the female polar bear, the Associated Press reported. "Even though it's a large white object, it's pretty nerve racking," police spokesman Jim Hansen said.
