It was the fallout from the great fall-in of ‘95. The 10-inch snowstorm of the weekend before had made the 80-foot steel-mesh aviary at the Bronx Zoo (recently renamed The International Wildlife Conservation Park in a full-employment act for sign painters) collapse. Of the 100 resident South American sea birds, 33 saw their moment and flew the coop. Caught in 50-mile-an-hour winds, most were quickly blown far from the zoo....

Walrus ivory was traded up and down Europe in the early Medieval period, when it was considered a hot commodity. The material was used in objects from crucifixes to game pieces, and Greenland’s Norse settlements held a “near monopoly” on the product. But after a period of success, Europe’s hunger for walrus ivory may have caused the community’s downfall.
