| Summary: | "Rare sea gull arrives at the zoo-The pictured glaucous (sea green) gull is said to be the only one of its kind in captivity. It was captured by Harry Whitney, of the Academy of Natural Sciences, 19th st. and the Parkway, a member of the Bartlett Northeast Greenland Expedition, who also shot several musk oxen which will be brought here and mounted in a habitat group. The glaucous gull is seldom seen below the Arctic Circle and the new arrival is attracting much attention at the penguin pool, which it is sharing with other water birds and a large green turtle."
