A woman, pushing a child in a stroller, stands in front of the ticketing booth at St. Petersburg's zoo December 19, 2006. The zoo closed after the deaths of two geese sparked a bird flu scare, but top sanitary officials said on Tuesday that tests had not confirmed the outbreak of the disease. The sign on the door reads "Zoo Closed".
