Animal Den: I was caught shortly before Christmas without a good cuddly polar bear in town. We did the Adopt an animal thing at the San Francisco zoo for 6 grandkids, and found cuddly stuffed animals for each choice EXCEPT couldn’t find a good polar bear. Got on the Web, found you and you had our bear here in time for a 3 year olds Christmas Eve surprise. We also are impressed with your connections to zoo world and wild life. Thanks much. May your 2005 be full of wonder, wisdom and a good dollop of wackiness. Marguerite DuFore
