[NAGDU] going to the zoo

[Bob Hicks]

At the Cleveland zoo the cheetahs were across a moat some 35 or 40 feet
away, but they followed us along the moat as my dog walked and reversed
their direction as soon as Nicholas and I did.  AT the Pittsburgh zoo there
was a large crowd at the gorilla glass cage and the ape wouldn't turn around
and look at the people, but as soon as Nicholas and I walked up to the back
of the group, he snapped his head around and watched as if we were lunch on
the hoof!  My family got a great thrill out of it.  Nicholas did seem to
mind at all.  By the way, this was back in the 80's.  Haven't been to the
zoo recently.  Back then, we had no restriction sat either zoo.  The petting
zoos were a different story.  The zoo animals were not thrilled about
Nicholas and I!  Several times we were urged to move along!  Hi hi

 

Have a great day, 73
