Wish I had brought some peanuts, or hazelnuts which are better but very hard to find!

Aw, so cute. Josh's girlfriend, Monica, is doing this children's book project and it's based on a squirrel going to a zoo and chatting with all the animals and teaching the kids that zoos are good. The squirrel's name is Stanley. All of us are on board with her project; sounds like fun too.

Took those with a 30x lens. The only problem with it is it takes a while to focus being so big. But these came out fairly well.
Zoos are good if they help people preserve the natural habitats of the animals. If they don't, there is no point.

That's what we're trying to say. That zoos are good for the animals b/c it helps their populations grow, etc.

Zoos also educate the public as to the importance of maintaining wild habitats, and, zoos maintain different genetic breeding pools to keep new animals genetically healthy.
