It's nice to have a reminder of the most recent deadly animal attack up front at the zoo. It adds something special to the affair.
When Jacob visited in March, the most tourist-like thing we did was to go
to the San Francisco Zoo. This was great for me - Ilovezoos! And it's not just because of all
the wonderful pictures I get every time... The added bonus for the SF Zoo
was that they'd recently had some kid killed because he was taunting one
of the lions. And so the place was a bit more deserted than usual, and
more obsessed with signage...
