Knox Zoo vs Nash Zoo

[TripleDigitRide]

We made the trip to the Louisville Zoo, today. It's far, far better than the Nashville Zoo, IMHO.

We took tons of pictures, but this little dude was great. He was King of Meerkat Mountain.

The Lorikeet exhibit was quite interesting, too.

You can buy ($2) a small cup of nectar and go inside the enclosure with about 20 of these birds. Once you're inside, you simply hold the small cup of nectar in front of you, and the birds start landing on you to drink from the cup.

It only took a couple of minutes for them to finish the nectar in the cup. Obviously this little fella didn't get his fair share. And my sweat must have been the next best thing. It was a little funny and gross at the same time.

I have never been to a zoo.

No problem. If you can't go to any of the zoos mentioned just come and visit the average Metro Nashville school. You will see plenty of wild animals and you may even be able to see the zoo keeper that is if he can be enticed to come out of his office.

as long as you don't throw your poop at people!

Ever had a chimp throw **** on you? I have. It's not nearly as amusing as it seems.

Just depends on which side you're on!

While doing community service one day I noticed a rush of people leaving the gorilla area. Seems one had come and sat by the window to work on going blind.

We use to have a chimp that had a shoe fetish. He would have himself a good ol' time while staring at your shoes.
