Enrichment humor for nerdy animal freaks

[urbpan]

On a zookeeper's message board on Yahoo:

OP: "I am looking for some ideas about the enrichment of Termites. Does somebody have ideas???"



peanut gallery #1: "I love this. Try putting an ant in the nest once a week. You may end up with neurotic termites but they will definitely not just sit around digesting their protozoans."

peanut gallery #2: "How about giving them sticks to poke chimpanzees with."

I will probably be giggling uncontrollably about #2 for at LEAST the rest of the day -- considering I'm required to be at work but practically no one else is.

WHY do I have this sudden (re-)occurance of an urge to go work in a zoo?

BAHaha. Nice.

with an audience like that, i'm suprised no one suggested vocabulary-building exercises.

That's the first laugh I've had in awhile. Thankyou. :)
