Fun to say, and somehow just right for what it names. As a ed volunteer at a zoo I'm quite familiar with poop in all it's glorious variety. As the book says. Everybody Poops.<BR/><BR/>You got me thinking about that sort of nitty-gritty body stuff as a source of story ideas. I think my years behind the scenes at the Zoo has the potential for some rich source material.<BR/><BR/>I also know someone who collects elephant semen for a living. There is a story in there someplace I'm sure, I just don't know were yet.<BR/> <BR/>The fully erect penis of a 500+ pound make lowland gorilla is about the size of an unfiltered cigarette. The next time you want a nice backhanded insult someone tell him he's hung like an ape. <BR/><BR/>Sumatran Rhinos have ovulation on demand. They don't produce an egg unless they have physically had sex in just the right way on just the right day. No IVF for them.
