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.

Amid the chaos, a polar bear escaped her flooded enclosure and needed to be tranquilised, while two seals were found washed up along nearby roads.

Sad to lose so many animals plus there was lots of damage to the area.  :(
