Thread:Comments:Fire breaks out at Chester Zoo, England/Reminiscent of Philly

I remember in my youth hearing, now I am really dating myself, about a fire in the building housing the monkeys at the Philadelphia Zoo. I think it took over a decade before they got the funding to rebuild and get new monkeys. It is usually pretty devastating for a community to undergo that. It was almost like the city lost its pets. Then agains, Philadelphia is city of brotherly love - just not to Santa at an Eagles game. He gets snowballs.
