Animalia


Here was a lunch conversation we had the other day when our neighbor Carl was over visiting.

Zaya: Carl, do you know what a habitat is?

Carl: Yes, I do. Can you tell me what a habitat is?

Zaya: Yes. It's the place where an animal lives.

Carl: That's right.

Mommy: What is the habitat of a whale?

Mim: The sea!!

Carl: Yes. And what's the habitat of a tiger?

Zaya: The jungle!!

Mommy: That's right. And what's the habitat of a lion?

Zaya: The zoo!!!

So close...

And then there was the conversation about their trip to the zoo with Grandma. Zaya told me that they saw a great big snake in the herpeterium, and it was called an...well, I can't actually write it down, but let's just say it was an Anaconda, but he said the last syllable wrong. I'll leave it to your own discovery.

There's a place along Florida highway 192 between Melbourne and Orlando that's got a big sign out front with a Massive picture of a cobra on it. This place is called the Reptile World Serpentarium.

I grew up in Louisiana and have seen plenty of snakes without having to pay for the "pleasure" so we have never stopped there. (It's in St. Cloud, Fla)
