Get Your Shots
posted in General |Oh f’r crying out loud. Some girl Miss B’s age climbs over a driftwood barrier, up three feet of rock wall, and over four feet of plexiglass - to pet the cute little meerkats. And the vicious feral meerkat, rightfully so, bit her finger.
Rather than getting the kid her six belly-puncturing rabies shots, they euthenized the entire meerkat family; five animals, an entire display. Of course, after they were dead, they could be tested- and no, they didn’t have rabies. Let me tell you; not that she would, she’s been in Zoo Camp for five years and she knows the rules, but if Miss B were to pull that stunt, she’d get the rabies shots. And I would too, because where was I while she performed her acrobatic meerkat feat?
