‘Proud Papa . .
Tom Martin isn’t handing out
cigars today but he has proudly
announced the birth of an 8-pound
fawn to “Barbie the Reindeer”
at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle.
Barbie is the deer that Tom
acquired as a fawn from the Sig
fried herd at Golovin and “raised
from a pup.” Barbie was given to
the zoo in January 1958. The
father of the new fawn is Pepper
foot, who hails from Norway and
was a gift to the zoo in 1957.
The fawn, not yet named, is the
second on record to be born in a
zoo on the west coast. The first
was born last year in the San
Diego zoo.
Zoo Director Ed Johnson said
that reindeer births “are unusual”
in zoos and “it is difficult even to
keep grown reindeer in captiv
ity.”
