Edmonton Humane Society opens doors to public ... - Metro News

The pets at the Edmonton Humane Society (EHS) are about to get a lot more friends visiting them.

EHS has launched a virtual tour of its main building with Google Tours to give the general public a better idea about the organization?s behind-the-scenes action.

?We?re hoping more and more people will be drawn to come into the building directly,? EHS spokesperson Shawna Randolph said Monday. ?It helps connect us with the rest of the world.?

The facility?s digital tour is the largest Edmonton building featured in Google Tours at 47,000 square feet.

?I thought it would be a really good tool for them,? said Jim Whitesell, the photographer that approached EHS about the project.

Whitesell hopes his photographs enlighten the public, much like the experience enlightened him.

?I have a much better understanding about what goes on at the Edmonton Humane Society now. It?s important for everybody to be able to see that,? he said.

The tour also features signs filled with EHS information.

?It?s not just looking at pictures, you?re learning about us as you take the tour,? said Randolph.

The tour is available online now.
