Sarah visits with Squirt, a blind Sardinian dwarf donkey. Sarah, my vice president in our chapter of the zookeeper association, came in on her day off to provide snacks for our visiting speaker talk.



Our visiting speaker was Bill Konstant, from the International Rhino Foundation. (You may remember my hilarious crack comparing various deeply held beliefs and so on.) It's important to know that rhinos are gravely endangered, but have been more endangered in the past, so things can get better. Bill let us know that the work we do with Bowling For Rhinos is improving the situation for wild rhinoceroses.

More importantly, we saw pictures of baby Sumatran rhinos which are by far the cutest animals we've never had at our zoo.
