very impressed with it, especially for being such a small zoo and
older at that. But they are re-doing a lot of their stuff and have a
number of animals that the Ft Worth Zoo doesn't have. The baby black
rhino that was born at the Ft Worth Zoo is now at the Abilene Zoo.
And they're getting a female from somewhere else, so they can be a
part of the Species Survival Program. In the summer, the Abilene Zoo
is getting a pair of Maned Wolves, so I'll certainly be going back to
get photos of those guys. *smiles*

sensual experience of wilderness. Sound of unreachable quality,
seeming weird and inhuman. But not unearthly. For it is of the
essence of the creature wolf: of his spirit, his being, his truth. A
transcendental song that took form uncounted millennia before time
was defined. Something elemental. A living call from the past. A
revelation of the very Universe.
