For reasons that escape me (but possibly including the desire to avoid the 2009 wrap-up post) I thought I'd make a list of all of the animal products and/or remains I have or have had around my house.

It started as a list of curios (see tiger), but expanded to include edibles (see chicken), and then fauna (see cockroaches), but there's no way I'm going to list every species on my property. I've also made no attempt to list all the applications of one particular species (you want to track down all the wool and leather in your house, go right ahead). So in no particular order and with no claims to thoroughness:

Made my way to the zoo again today for a walk and some furry action. I find myself motivated by many things, amongst them the desire to make the most of the winter sun. That's three trips now (and a 10% discount on a red panda puppet), so I've made back the cost of my Zoo Friend membership. The rest is gravy :-)
