The other night I watched an episode of Animal Cops: Houston on the Animal Planet channel. It chronicled the efforts of the Houston SPCA and other volunteer organizations to rescue domestic animals and wildlife after Hurricane Ike.

They even showed some of Seabrook because they released some pelicans there after they had been rehabilitated.
