The handling barn at the caribou captive breeding centre, as shown in this handout image, in Jasper National Park remained relatively undamaged by the wildfire that swept through the park this summer. The barn, shown here before the fire, will handle up to 40 pregnant cows, providing a safe place to deliver their calves and help replenish the park's vanishing herds.
