I don't know if any of you know who Debbie, the Polar Bear is, but she is or shall I say was the last living polar bear at the Assiniboine zoo. She was put to sleep yesterday because she was very sick and really very old for a polar bear. 42 to be exact and she had many organs that were not working well any more so they did what they had to do. I saw her this summer and she didn't look very healthy. I really liked Debbie, I enjoyed going to the zoo and seeing her out there walking around or swimming in her pool. I'm going to miss her, she was a special polar bear or at least she had a special place in my heart. She reminded me of our time in Churchill and what a unique place that was. So, here's to you Debbie!!
