    Rest in peace, sweet Debby.

    Many friends are welcoming her at the Bridge!

    Wow, I didnt know polar bears lived that long. Alaska Zoo's Binky only lived to 21 years of age. Link. I have no idea how old Binky's cagemate Nuka lived, they died a few days apart.

    RIP Debby, and thanks for sharing.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!
