More Large Zoo Stars

In most zoos, the gorilla house or habitat will be put together with one of the largest viewing areas. People will always find time to stop and watch as these are among the most popular attractions. Is it a sign of evolution? I doubt it; people are not looking at the past, they are looking at the present. And as much as we might love zebras and tigers, we see nothing reminiscent of humans. When we look at the gorilla house, how could we fail to see the resemblance to us? The general shape, the relationships, the motherly love; the youth swinging from vines or ropes and having a wonderful time. It all looks so . . . so normal, so human.

Brookfield Zoo has a wonderful habitat. With great viewing locations. So here we are with my 250th post already! More big Brookfield stars in the next post.
