Zoo apologizes for smelly gorillas
Zookeepers at Chessington Zoo in Surrey, England have issued an apology to visitors due to the foul stench coming from a gorilla enclosure after the animals were fed brussel sprouts.

The primates were fed the green treats due to the vitamin C they contain.

But, the strong smells produced from the gorillas have now forced the zoo to revert back to the usual diet of vegetables, fruits, nuts and leaves during operating hours.

They'll still get the sprouts at closing time.

Yeah, and the zookeepers in other zoos have issued an apology to their gorillas for the smelly and stinky smoking visitors....
 
All I can say on the issue is wow.. ( raises one eyebrow and lowers the other)

ahaha yeah, luckily Melbourne zoo will become a smoke free zoo in 2009. I notice heaps of smokers whenever I go to the zoo, it is strange last time I went this guy blew in my face.... gah! :mad:
Why the hell would you blow in someone's face! espicially kids!?
 
I visited Lisieux Zoo/CERZA in France on a hot day this summer. My son said "what a stink, we must be really near the gorillas". I replied that there weren't any gorillas in this zoo. Sure enough we turned a corner and there was a big fat man in vest and shorts who managed to smell like Howlett's x 10. Fortunately sprouts weren't in season at the time...

ahaha! funniest thing I heard once at my zoo was.. "Hey, Dad gee these animals smell!"

The dad replies "How would you smell if you didn't wash for one week? You'll soon know how these animals feel cause your half way there!"
 
Having a scene straight from an EastEnders cliffhanger roll before you're eyes at Marwell Zoo is pretty hard to beat for humour!
