The Top 10 Signs that You're at a Bad Zoo
10.When no one else is looking, you swear that the monkeys
are giving you the finger.
9.The Bears exhibit is nothing more than the guys cut from
the football team during training camp.
8.The stripes on the zebra tend to peel away in the heat.
7.The Zoo keeper always wants to take the Rhino for a walk.
6.The Lion in the lion cage closely resembles
the one from The Lion King.

than the University of Florida's Mascot.
4.If you deposit 50 cents, the giraffe will magically appear and talk to you.
3.Ask the Tour Guide too many questions and you're suddenly
dipped in some sort of sauce and placed in the Tigers den.
2.Not only does the Elephant appear to be two guys in a two
part Elephant suit but its always groping the customers.

Ha ha those are pretty good. I have never seen them before. I particularly liked the bit about the stripes peeling away from the zebra in the heat. I am going to have to tell a few friends about this post and have them check it out. You get a + from me today!

True story Bella. I used to have to visit Gibraltar several times a year and was usually put up ate the Rock Hotel. Arguably the smartest hotel on the rock (Gibraltar is a town on a rock. Not much else.) Half way between the town and the hotel was a small animal enclosure. In this was a solitary ape (Gib is famous for its apes). I always walked back from the office and paused to say hello to this ape. You'd think that sitting there all day watching the world go by, he'd welcome a little same mental age company. But no. Every single time he would turn his back on me, show his not inconsiderable bottom and let out the grossest fart you've ever heard. I have the same effect on women. XX

There was a hippo in our zoo that used to do that, only he did a little more than fart. He always backed his backside right up to the fence, and let 'er rip.
sorry, that really was kind of gross. But, I am leaving it here.

Hi bellaofchoas... I read your discussion with great laughter. I remember a visit to a Howlett park (or spelt something like that in Kent) where the orangutans were really nervous and the cage was not big enough in my opinion. He grabbed his own dung to throw it at the visitors. Not a nice smell to have on your clothes.

I wasn't going to respond to this but, #10 made me think of the Silver Back gorilla that was in our zoo, then I read pike's post. Mikey, the gorilla, used to get pretty close to the glass, make faces at the people standing there. Then, he would play with himself, lick his palm when he was finished, slap his palm on the window, then flip the crowd off.

That is funny. But i think number 4 should definitely be number 1. I saw a sign in a zoo once,(animated) and it said "DO NOT FORGET TO FEED THE ELEPHANTS". I was confused if it was a joke or if it was serious. I laughed when i saw that and thought it was clever, because im assuming the elephant put in the "forget to" part.
