Very superstitious

Great presentation from the International Rhino Foundation today, long story short: rhinos are still threatened by trade in rhino horn, driven mainly by bunk medicinal uses.

After the talk, a couple zookeepers were in conversation, one expressing befuddlement that someone could believe that a particular form of ground keratin possesses special powers. I butt in, eating a cracker: "could you believe that this simple cracker can transubstatiate into the flesh of a god?"

Oh, view out my office window, why have I never come up with a tag for you?


The other night a group of zookeepers from my work and a group of staff from one of the neighboring zoos got together for a meet and drink. It was a blast, and I posted those pics on Facebook if you want to see tipsy zookeepers. My friend Kiki decided to sign my friend Siobhan's bosom (she drew a little heart) and Siobhan's husband blocked my camera with his hand, resulting in this serendipitous shot.
