I did something new the other day. I signed up for a social event with the zoo called wild on the rocks. The director for moving of animals basically held a talk on the her job and her experiences and took questions from people. It was a zoom event because of the stupid virus reactions but it was an interesting time.
The lady talked about how different states and countries have different regulations concerning the movement and transportation of wild animals. She talked about how when transporting three liens from Atlanta to Chicago they had to hire people to ride behind the truck with rifles loaded and ready in case the liens got loose in the state of Tennessee but no other states had that regulation. She talked about other stuff that was interesting. A lot of it was the fascinating because she experienced it and boiled it down to find answers but three years sitting and watching a group of animals in a California Valley does not sound like a lot of fun to me or my wife.
But it was a good experience! I'm hoping to do more of these as the I get older. I look forward to actually going to the zoo and participating in the event socially. It's all part of my changing and adding new things to my life that I've never been able to do before because of my schedule and commitments to family and church. And now that I'm able to do these things I'm enjoying it!
