From the AP:





Speaking of Swine, the big cull in the Hoge Veluwe is supposed to start tomorrow. I wonder if the Party for the Animals (political party) is going to go ballistic...

I used to live in Indonesia when i was younger, and when i would look out my window there were usually a few monkeys i could see. No giraffe though, that kind of saddens me :(

I bet they were planning this escape for months. As is usually the case, they're right back to the cell block.

I have a friend who used to be a clown on the Ringling Bros. Circus. Based on what he told me about the plight of circus animals... well, put it this way: you'd try to escape too.

@Cracken _ Yeah, for some reason I kept spelling it differently, so sorry for that. Cracken is CQ, I get it now.
Monkeys: as you may have seen from an earlier post or two, I am an outspoken advocate of monkeys.

I always feel bad for animals in the circus :(
