Babylon's Ark: The Incredible Wartime Rescue of the Baghdad Zoo

Babylon's Ark is a heart-wrenching yet inspiring true story of how one dedicated man, Lawrence Anthony, risked his life to save the abandoned animals of the Baghdad Zoo during the chaos of the Iraq war in 2003.

Despite the danger and uncertainty, Anthony worked tirelessly with members of the zoo staff and a few compassionate U.S.

soldiers to defend the zoo, barter for food on war-torn streets, and scour bombed palaces for desperately needed supplies.

This remarkable true story highlights the selfless courage and humanity of individuals living dangerously for all the right reasons, and is an inspiring reminder of the power of compassion and determination in the face of adversity.
