Diane Parkhurst - friends of animals
Diane Parkhurst has loved animals her entire life and has welcomed them into her family for as long as she can remember. “I was only 2 or 3 years old when we got our first dog,” she says. “In all the pictures my parents took, there I am, beaming, right next to my dog,Chinook. I still carry a picture of Chinook in my purse.”

Change for the Good
There’s a sea change welling at the Lake Superior Zoo in Duluth. It officially started last spring, when the City of Duluth turned over control of the zoo to the Lake Superior Zoological Society. In actuality, however, the change started at least a couple years before that, when the zoo lost its Association of Zoos and Aquariums accreditation in 2006.
