Just read this post, I'm under 14
but
I have to correct you on that you on that, you hate children at the zoo entirely
Clearly what's sauce for the goose isn't sauce for the gander in this case!

You watch "Me at the Zoo" and know that there are both African and Asian Elephants in the background. You also want to know the names of the individual Elephants in the video and are thinking of start in ten year anniversary thread for the video.
What do you mean (I probably sound really stupid saying this)?
Well you are mad that someone didn't want to let under 14s in but on the other hand would like to bludgeon annoying children.
So you can be anti-children at the zoo but are mad when someone else is anti-children at the zoo.
You get angry when:
When a cafe comes up instead of a new animal
When a zoo spends more money buying 4D theaters instead of making new animal exhibit
You see a woodland exhibit that has been lawn mowed
When dwarf mongoose has been replaced my meerkat(Apply to all rare species with common counterparts)
The sifakas are not out but the ring tailed lemurs are
A really great exhibit is being closed down

You buy a bird book, just to right down what wild birds you've seen.
You don't understand how Naked Mole Rats aren't cute, but Meerkats supposedly are.
When anyone around you hates you because you just tell them about the animal in the enclosure/ tank.
You own several Encyclopaedia's about animals/ nature, but you still want more.
You know the correct pronunciation of Encyclopaedia.
You plan every last move you make at the zoo, 2 weeks in advance.

They always seem to charge extra for the 4D stuff too. Or is it just my imagination?
You get really annoyed when you have been to Antwerp but didn't see the mountain gorilla(personal experiance)
Yeah, I always wish some zoo I visit would have a free theater, ha ha. I do love a good documentary and because Texas, it is nice to have ways to get out of the heat once in a while.

You tell everyone, from random people on the T to police officers to drug dealers that you are on your way to see a Gorilla.
Believe it or not: About 2 weeks ago, my brother and I drove from Switzerland to Belgium by car and at night. At the border between Switzerland and France, we've been stopped by a french border officer. He asked us what we suppose to do. You should have seen his face as I answered: We are traveling to Belgium to visit zoos...

I can only imagine what the Canadians will say when I eventually try to go to Granby. Probably they will tell me to turn around and go to Boston.

I had a similar experience with Australian Customs when I flew to New Zealand just to see a parrot.

You know that the seal in the sealcoating ad you saw on TV is in fact a female California Sea Lion.
You watch a sort of TV survival programme and you yell at the screen when the person traps a 'rat' in the rainforest of northern Thailand which is actually a Tree Shrew!!! (probably Northern )
)You get angry when people see any lemur that's not a coquerel's sifaka and yell ZOBOOMAFOO!
You are constantly on Zootierliste
You get mad when a woodland species is exhibited in a treeless paddock or exhibit
You want more species of pinnipeds and cetaceans in captive breeding programs

Is this Naked and Afraid?
Is this Naked and Afraid?
It wasn't actually, Naked and Afraid is too pointless even for me to watch
(Why are they naked? It doesn't enhance the show, it just makes it stupid. Anyway...) I don't actually remember the name of the programme because it was something my parents were watching while I was there on my computer (it was something where a person was living with a hill tribe in Thailand) though somehow instinctively I knew to look up to see the 'rat' being trapped.
I think the rat confusion comes from an error with the translation because I would guess the word for Tree Shrew and Rat in Karen in the same word. (apparently Tree Shrew in Burmese directly translates as 'Field Rat'
)
