Balto the sled dog is a great story
As The Plain Dealer's Laura DeMarco reported last week, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History is loaning the stuffed, mounted remains of Balto, the sled dog who saved Nome, Alaska, to a museum in that state for a few months.
A lot of us have walked past this exhibit over the years on the way to see Alice the allosaurus, Lucy the human progenitor or some other higher-profile exhibit more along the lines of what you'd expect a museum of natural history to offer. Well, this is your last week to go seek Balto out. And as we recently learned, it's worth a closer look at the dog whose strength and skill helped beat back a deadly diphtheria outbreak in 1925.
