from 'An Exaltation of Larks,' by James Lipton - my daughter Heather recently reminded me of the rhinoceros incident at the Denver Zoo. My girls don't like zoos and rarely visit them. The incident in question occurred when they were too young to protest much at the incarceration of innocent animals. We were strolling along on our way to see the penguins and were stopped by this firehose-like noise and an horrific odor. A rhinoceros had backed up against a metal door and let 'er rip - pissed the paint right off the door. Upstaged the cute penguins, for sure.
'A crash of rhinoceroses' is in current use in the Kenya Game Reports.
