Thanks for all that info. Its nice to hear some kind words about America, especially Topeka. Definatly kind people (besides Fred Phelps). I've never heard that song, but now you've made me curious, I'll have to check it out.
Too bad you missed some of the good exhibits at Omaha, KC, and St Louis, but you got to see Topeka when it was truly great, even before I was born. I would love to see that piece if you still have it.
@KCZooFan: Must have been 2004/5. Friendly and hospitable people, indeed, and the tamandua is truly a cutie.
As you can see, @KCZooFan, there's more consensus between us two than you originally thought.

Scooter Mangabey - yes you are correct, these used to hold apes. I still don't believe it myself. The original idea behind the Animals and Man building was really neat - how animals and man were similar and dissimilar and how they affected each others lives. That is a pretty cool concept in my opinion. Wish it still had that feeling.
Yes, George was the name of the pronghorn buck.
