    I have never met any Zoochatters. I have always been paranoid about meeting nameless, faceless people off the internet. Maybe one day I'll take a risk and meet some of you.

    Did think about listing the number of people I have meet from on here,but then realised that it would be pretty close to 50,given the number of people that have been on the walk and talks at Chester!!

    I'm only aware of meeting Maguari. Who knows whether I've bumped into others.

    I've managed 3 or 4, depends on how you look at it:-
    Zoogiraffe
    BongoRob
    Hevden (That's where it gets confusing...)
    Not bad since I've only been on the site a year AND I don't have Chester on my doorstep. :p

    The only zoo I'm likely going to is Omaha this summer. Maybe I will see someone there.

    I am going to go out on a limb and say that I've probably met more zoochatters than anyone else in North America. I think I'm close to 15 or so.

    snowleopard
    ArizonaDocent (twice)
    zooplantman
    ANyhuis
    Budorcas
    TeamTapir (2)
    Trowaman
    TexasZooMan
    Baldur
    Pedro
    MikeG
    Tim Brown
    zooman
    writhedhornbill

    I'm sure there might be one or two more that I missed.

    PM, I'll see if I can make it up there. Long overdue.

    I've only met team tapir and zooman at the Kansas City Zoo. Gonna head to the Honolulu zoo in a few weeks, but I don't know of any zoochatters out there. Invitation is open if anyone wants to meet at the KC Zoo.
