2. A lion and a bear were recently rescued from a zoo in Mosul. They were apparently the last animals left alive.

   “Our mission in Iraq was supported by many locals and proved that even in worst hardships there are people who care for animals,” a veterinarian with the Four Paws team, Dr. Amir Khalil, said in a statement. “I am very touched to have experienced the humanity of the civilian population as well as military. Many of the soldiers shared their food with the animals.”
