Sad Farewell To The Fish

Katrina's culture shock - Culture - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper:

"Some institutions, especially aquariums and gardens, could suffer further from a lack of power or diesel fuel for generators to maintain life-support systems.

Most of the saltwater and freshwater fish were lost at the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas at the foot of Canal Street in New Orleans, while sea otters, penguins, raptors and a white alligator were saved, officials said."

Another post about the devastation of Hurricane Katrina on the Audobon Aquarium. This one states that most of the fish that were there had been lost. This has got to be a big loss for them, though they were able to save many of their other creatures that they had.
