Mill Mountain Zoo is canceling its annual Groundhog Day celebration featuring Kylie. The prairie dog died of cancer last spring.
For the last four years, she predicted how much longer winter would last based on whether she saw her shadow. Zoo officials have no plans to use another animal, saying Kylie was special because she was trained to use for educational purposes. Since Groundhog Day attracts people to Mill Mountain during slow winter months, the zoo is hosting a special Valentine's Day celebration in its place.
