I shall fulfill my role in the SDMB zoo by either A) walking off the nearest cliff as popularly believed or B) trying to swim across a river, falsely believing it to be a small pond or stream. Hey, it’s the least a lemming can do!

What’s a zoo without a cute lil’ soft rabbit? I don’t particularly like the kids petting area though… can we make an adult petting zoo?? 😉

What’s a zoo without a Wolf? _Canis Dirus_ reporting for duty.

Is this one of those zoos where the lurkers drive through, like a Safari Park? I say we all get rowdy, jump on their cars, and scratch the paint up. 😛

And here we have psycats, 90 of them apparently. What the hell is a psycat anyway? Well, I suppose it’s a large purple cat, closely related to the lion. Don’t expect too much a show from them, they just like to lay out in the sun all day.

People say my user name looks like a clown face.  
Need a clown for your zoo? Or is that just circuses.

Second wolf checking in (after **Dire Wolf** o’course). I don’t really exist in reality, and I like mountains with lots of snow and ice.

'Course, cheaper option: just give me a computer, and I’ll be forever content …

Oh, yeah. Pet me whenever you want. Ice Wolves don’t mind that at all.

Mockingbirds go “squack”?

Hey, **T M** , c’mon down and enjoy the fun! There’s ducks an’ a goose, an’ cats, an’ … lots and lots!

'Sides – who needs oral sex when fur is _definitely_ in!!

There is only one **alonicist** , sulking drowsily in its terraced cave. Due to its enormous bulk and camouflage coloration, it’s not clear if this **alonicist** has any tail.

hmmm - decent at the petting soo, eh? I’d love to, as long as “docent” isn’t a euphemism for “pooper-scooper”…

Hey!! You kids!! You’re supposed to be petting the animals, not each other!!! Hey!! Look at me when I’m yelling at you!!!

Maybe I could just sell ice cream or something…
