Hey guys. Long time no show! I've been busy with alot of things, and I've had some interesting stories from the Zoo, but this I just had to post today for some laughs. I didn't know where to put this, being it doesn't involve a guest...it involves a life time Zoo employee of our Education department. Out Leopard Tortoise.
Well, today it reached 97 degrees here in smelly ole' Staten Island. And this weekend was Festa Italiana at the Staten Island Zoo. Of course, we were all working our asses off! And my day started with a bang! We had a Animal Show at 11:30 at our main stage, that my friend Tiffany and I got tricked into doing. During the show, I was holding the Leopard Tortoise while someone else was speaking about her (I spoke about my snake:twisted :) . Anyway, during the presentation, I hear my friend Tiffany say "Oh my god Dainan! She's peeing on you!" And I look down, and there's a big stain going from my crotch to the end of my shorts.
While this sounds funny, and it truly was, I tried to move him, because I was down with the audience by this point to let them touch the shell, and he starts going again, nearly missing some poor woman's feet! The audience ws packed and they were doing a recording of the show! So I'm sure this will end up on the Internet of the Zoo doesn't edit the footage (which they probably will). It was hot all day, so this nasty tortoise piss is now stained into my shorts and was sticking to my leg ALL DAY!
This is me and the same Tortoise over a year ago!
Thank you for reading.

Is that a vertical stabilizer on his back? That must be one fast tortoise!
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I'd get a hold of that video if I were you. There might just be some really specific niche fetishists who'd pay big $$$ for it. :)

This is clear evidence that tortoises have great memories, so what did you do to that tortoise last year? Revenge of the Tortoise, lol.
