    I've just read this rather amusing conversation on Linkedin, I thought I'd share it here.

    ‘Mum who is that man?’ asks my 7 year old.
    ‘That’s Boris Johnson and he runs our country’ I reply.
    ’and who is the other man?’ He continues.
    And before I can answer my 12 year old pipes up ’that's David Attenborough, and he’s the man that should be running the country’

    BOOM….. enough said! Children are just fantastic aren’t they!

    It's not actually all that uncommon for large zoos to have more than one tiger subspecies?

    Yeah honestly the meme is really scuffed I’ve posted it elsewhere and been told the same. Thanks for input!

    Not sure if it fits here as it is not actually a joke, but...

    Thinks in the most dangerous animals.

    Depends on "dangerous". This is the most dangerous animal a zoo can get. IMG_1181.JPG

    I'd imagine that a fair number of zoos also have both African and Asian Elephant [though of course, the forest elephant is essentially non-existent in captivity]

    Yeah I’ve been told before, the meme is the trashiest is the worst I’ve made in a very long time.

    It isn’t just primates that do these kinds of shenanigans. One time at the zoo, one of the bears just took a piss, and what did the other bear do? He lapped it up.

    Nature is truly full of surprises.

    Why do zoos only keep one King Cobra at a time?

    If there were any more, a coup d'etat would occur.

    Why is it controversial again, I believe I've heard of it before...?
