ron, how much have things changed in terms of planning for flamingos and other animals at the zoo in the case of irma. >> we've made a lot of upgrades at the zoo itself. hurricane andrew destroyed the zoo so in the process of rebuilding, we rebuilt it with these hurricanes in mind and of course just meeting the miami building codes now, probably the toughest building codes in the country so we've got a lot of additional safe structures now that we've moved these animals into. we no longer have to put the flamingos into the bathroom. they have their own safe structure and a lot of the smaller animals are move t to smaller enclosures that are moved to buildings throughout the zoo. >> we know a lot of folks that have had to evacuate. they've got their pets with them. pets obviously sense, you know, a big storm coming. what is it like for the larger animals and for your team to be able to move these animals to safety if they're feeling resistant or frightened? >> well, fortunately, most of the animals don't have to be moved at all. most of the animals spend their time in the natural exhibits and holding areas which are built strong enough to contain the strength of an animal.
