Original Toronto Star caption: Welcome to the world. Dr. Kay Mehren usually has peace and quiet when she delivers babies, but on Sunday she had 3,000 spectators at Metro Zoo as she delivered a baby elk by cesarean section. When we finished, the mother got up and trotted away, Mehren said, and everybody clapped and cheered.
