I want to build a zoo..

Given the surreal nature of this thread I think John Lennon could have written a really great song about it.

"In zoos there are loos, and the papers disappear
when the pensioner gets near,
confirming our worst fear.

There were whales once
but they've all gone,
back to the sea to sing their songs
of the zoos that they choose
no longer to use."

Goo goo g'joob.

Is that from "I Am The Orca"?

"Famous people you have met or want to meet in the mens' toilets at the zoo"

I haven't met any celebrities in the bathrooms at zoos, nor has my father, but he did meet Muhammad Ali in a restroom.

And ungulatenerd, I like the ideas on those two Facebook pages!

That said, I wish you luck, Haruki, in your plans to reintroduce cetaceans to the UK zoo scene. You're going to need a lot of money and stubbornness in dealing with the planning authorities and the guile to take on the protestors who will inevitably challenge the exhibition in Britain of dolphins and Killer Whales again.

I don´t believe it can be done, but just out of curiosity, where would you get the orcas for you zoo? You certainly wouldn´t be allowed to capture wild ones, so where would you get them and how would you transport them to UK?

P.S. - David Brown, I love the song! You should record it and upload it on Youtube
