Satellite communications in 1993 were more cumbersome than they are now, but they worked. When we first arrived in Tuzla some reporters and I drove up into the hills in the background. They gave us a great view of the city, which was a Muslim enclave surrounded by very hostile Serbs. As we looked over the town a huge roaring started up and caused us to look at each other in amazement...what could it be? It was some sort of animal, but it sounded huge, like maybe a cave bear. It went on for five minutes at least...we got back to the hotel and I asked the concierge what the roaring was. He explained there was a bear at the Tuzla Zoo which liked to roar when he was ready for dinner. He said I should go to the zoo at feeding time, as the sound was really spectacular up close. I had to tell him it was pretty spectacular a mile away. While I was in Tuzla a wolf at the zoo had cubs. She had no denning box and the brand new cubs were right out in the open. I was told Tuzla is Turkish for salt mine.
