Babylon's Ark

When the Iraq war began, the Baghdad Zoo, located in the city centre, was caught in the war's crossfire. This title chronicles the zoo's transformation from bombed-out rubble to peaceful park. It recounts hair-raising efforts to save a pride of the dictator's lions, close a deplorable black-market zoo, and rescue Saddam's Arabian horses.
