[video description: video is a TikTok by @colombuszoofamilyparks. The video features several short clips of aquatic turtles timed to an electronic tune that said in auto tune "turtle" and at the end, the music stops while showing a large tortoise and the audio says in a normal voice "that's a tortoise!"

May I suggest a komodo dragon (ignore my username)

Yes, absolutely, one of my favorite animals!

Komodo Dragon (Varanus komodoensis), family Varanidae, found on Komodo Island, and other nearby islands in Indonesia

Venomous.

ENDANGERED.

It was once thought that Komodos subdue prey with a heavy and noxious array of mouth bacteria that infect bite wounds of prey after being bitten, but… it was never really determined scientifically if that’s what was happening (conclusively, at least). (It is still believed though that this may aid in brining down larger prey).

It turned out, they’re venomous! Research was done in 2009 that found a primitive venom gland at the back of the mouth.

This is that largest species of lizard in the world, growing to a maximum total length of up to ~ 3 m (~10 ft.) long and a max. weight of up to 8~ 81 kg (180 lbs) (in the wild).

You probably wonder, what is a manatee doing in Ohio ? Well it turns out Colombus is know for protecting and rehabilitate manatees. Most of them being calves who lost their mother. They have a permanent resident called Stubby who's got her tail cut off my a propeller and she serves a surrogate for the babies that end up temporarily in the zoo.

-Calfana | Psychic Type The baby manatee pokemon Calfana aren't native from the Ohayo region, they were brought in after a tragic incident left them tailess. Through care and love it the very weak psychic power of this pokemon strenghtened giving it the ability to swim again. The next generation somehow kept that unique trait.

-Stubbarent | Psychic Type The Sanctuary pokemon This pokemon is often found looking after a group of Calfana, they are as sweet and caring as they are though and strong. It is believed that the "fishes" surrendering this pokemon are independent pokemon living in a different plane who were drawn to it's caring aura.

[surveys-at-your-service]

Survey #343

“i slither like a viper and get you by the neck  /  i know a thousand ways to help you forget about her”

What's your favorite kind of bear? I don't really know. I just like bears. Have you ever sent a FWD because you were afraid? Ha, yup, as a little kid. Would you ever date more than one person at a time? Nooooo sir. Have you ever rebounded... or been someone's rebound? No. What’s the biggest argument you’ve ever had with a family member? Did things ever go back to how they were beforehand? My grandmother cursed me the fuuuuck out one night as a kid because I was in a mood and didn't tell my mother goodnight. I still remember being called an ungrateful bitch with her like an inch from my face, and admittedly, I was being rude because I wanted to go home, but it kinda scarred me for life. For the remainder of her life, I was always sort of on edge around her and was convinced she didn't like me. Have you ever experienced some kind of natural disaster? I've been through lots of hurricanes. None that massively affected my life, though. If you have pets, do you feed them human food or do they just get regular pet food? If they do get human food, what’s their favorite thing to have? Venus is a snake, so she obviously doesn't get food meant for humans. Roman is very well-trained to not beg or make a move for people's food; he tried once as a kitten, and giving him a pop taught him right away. Have you ever been in a physical fight? Who won? No. What’s the mode of transport that you take or use the most? The car. Mom's, specifically. Have you ever had a zoo keeper experience or anything where you’ve been able to go behind the scenes and look after/feed the animals? No, but I wish. :( Would you ever want the responsibility of being a politician or a similar position of power? NOOOOOOO. What’s something your parents do that really annoys you? Mom is *always* right, pretty much indisputably. And she WILL have the last word. Dad, meanwhile, can be pretty rude to people. I don't think he realizes it half the time, but still. It's not an excuse. What is your main source of anxiety? Social interactions. What’s your favorite 90s cartoon? Pokemon. Describe the moment you realized you were falling in love with someone. I'd rather not. What’s your favorite sparkling water brand/flavor? I've never tried sparkling water. What’s your favorite makeup brand/brands? I don't have a favorite, considering I don't wear it nearly enough and have never even bought my own. I just use whatever Mom buys. What are some female names you would name a baby? Alessandra is my favorite for sure. I also love Anneliese, Justine, Evelyn, Chloe, Evangeline, Quinn... There's a lot. What about male? Severin is my favorite, and I also like Damien, Vincent, Victor, and Luther. Do you have any subscription boxes? No. What fictional creature would you like as a pet? I want a dragon, goddammit. Idc if it can breathe fire ok I want a dragon. Ewoks are also the one and only thing I enjoy from Star Wars. What kind of dwelling do you live in? Just a one-story house. Is there anyone you work with that you don't get along with? Why? N/A Do you have an opinion on adopting/purchasing a pet? PLEASE adopt, especially with cats and dogs, given the number of strays. Purebreds tend to have so many underlying issues, and besides, it's just a LOT of money for an animal that probably wouldn't outlive a mutt. Don't feed the machine if you can. What's your favorite chain restaurant? The Cheesecake Factory or Olive Garden. Why were you last pulled over? I’ve never been pulled over before. What was the last thing you've done on the water? Just kinda swam around a bit in the ocean. It was so warm, totally like a bath. I do NOT miss that sun poisoning, though. Are you cool with swimming in a lake? I think I'd do it if someone invited me to, and the lake didn't look filthy, of course. Do you have a drone? No. What's your favorite hole-in-the-wall restaurant? We have this tiny, local Mexican place that's really good. I don't know the name of it, and I wouldn't share it for obvious reasons. What do you order from there? Chips and salsa of course, along with a shrimp and cheese quesadilla, and finally their cheesy rice. What's your favorite ice-cream flavor? Depending on my mood, it bounces between vanilla with chocolate syrup or just plain chocolate. Do you have any t-shirts from any local businesses? No. Do you listen to any talk shows or podcasts? I used to listen to Mark, Bob, and Wade's podcast, but I'm like... ten months behind, haha. What's something someone calls you that you find endearing? I like "love" a lot. What's your favorite children's book? I loved books like The Rainbow Fish, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Stellaluna, 10 Minutes 'til Midnight, What Makes a Rainbow?, Chrysanthemum, etc. Is there a new season for a series you're excited to come out? Meerkat Manor comes back this summer, and I am fucking HYPED. How old are you? I'm 25. What is something unique you enjoy about the one you like/love? I tease her about it all the time, but it's really cute that she keeps all of her snakes' good sheds in her room. Proud reptile mom. Are you more liberal or conservative? I'm close to the middle, but I lean towards being more liberal, and I seem to go more that way with time. Do you watch American Horror Story? I used to. I saw the entire first season and really liked it, and then I almost finished the second, but I lost interest. The story got a bit stupid imo. I'd be willing to watch other seasons, though. Does your hometown have any urban legends/scary stories? None that I’m aware of. The people there are scary enough. What's the scariest nightmare you remember having? Let's not talk about it. Are you medicated? Uh very. Are there any apps you're addicted to? Nah. Did you have a favorite stuffed animal as a child? It was initially a bunny holding a polka-dotted blanket, then it become a moose I got from Cabela's when in Ohio. Do you still collect stuffed animals? Only meerkat ones. Have you ever stolen/borrowed clothes from an ex? Haha I've worn Jason's pj pants before and they just kinda... became mine, lol. What's the last movie you watched at home? The Shining, I believe. What's the last movie you watched in theaters? The CGI remake of The Lion King. I still don't get why it was received so badly. Have you ever had eggs cooked over a campfire? I don't think so, no. If you do drink, what's your favorite alcoholic beverage? Margaritas, generally. However, Sara's dad made me this absofuckinglutely incredible chocolate drink before that tasted like a milkshake. It had like, no alcohol flavor, which worked out well for me considering I very much dislike that taste. Are there any songs you've been listening to repetitively lately? There's a new one every day lately, haha. Today it's Halocene's cover of "Love Bites (So Do I)." Cereal, granola, or oatmeal? Cereal. What TV shows did you grow up watching? You gotta gimme an age group... but I'd say the typical stuff for kids of that time. What does your phone case look like? It's just a boring purple that came with it. What were your favorite toys to play with as a child? I looooved playing with my "family" of a father crocodile, a mother deer, their two "children" (a fawn and smaller croc), and "friends" that were little Pokemon figurines. Then there was an evil t-rex with two stupid sidekicks, haha. I can't remember what dinosaurs they were. What's the most embarrassing thing you can ever remember doing? Hold on, lemme find my book. Do you remember what you dreamt about last night? I only very faintly recall dreaming about my cat Roman. Have you ever done anything embarrassing in a dream? Thank FUCK they're just dreams. Do you vape? Nah. What was a song you loved as a child? So uh. Apparently. I loved "Dookie" by Green Day. It's an undying story from Mom about how it came on once at a putt-putt place and I apparently started yelling "dookie!" and dancing. Do you enjoy the Arctic Monkeys? Yeah, I love some of their songs. Are you going to see Finding Dory? You bet your sweet ass I saw it. I've cried everytime I've watched it. Have you ever been horseback-riding? I have not, but I would love to. When was your last piercing? Whenever I got my tragus done, which I can't remember. What did your first crush look like? I don't remember my puppydog love first crush, but I can talk about my first REAL crush, Sebastian. He's a skinny dude with short, brown hair and a lip piercing... I can't remember which kind. He dressed in an emo style, and Facebook pictures at least suggest he still kind of does, I think. Is your body more curvy or flat? Well, I'm not at all skinny, so... What's your least favorite holiday? Probably Christopher Colombus Day, honestly. You didn't discover shit. Don't pretend to me it's worth celebrating in a clean conscience. if you’re having a boring day what do you usually do? If I'm rock-bottom bored, quite honestly, I normally nap, even though I know I shouldn't. Do you turn to food when you're upset? Ugh, I'm admittedly an emotional eater. I got way better about it, and then I started up again. Is your bf/gf good with your parents? I don't have an s/o. Do you think soda should be served at school? Vending machines are fine I suppose, as I don't believe they should be free seeing as they're nothing but sugar content, and I feel schools shouldn't just hand that out to kids at lunch or something. Do dogs have feelings? They sure do. Are you afraid of snakes? Oh no! I adore them. I respect snakes and am going to give wild ones their space for sure considering I don't recognize every native venomous one, but nevertheless, I'm not afraid of them. They are so vital to the ecosystem and are incredibly fascinating animals that deserve our protection. On that note, PLEASE do not kill any snake you come across in your shed or whatever. Call someone to relocate the terrified thing. Favorite snack? It depends on what I'm in the mood for, really. Ever seen The Notebook? Read the book, seen the movie plenty of times. Do you think cussing is trashy? No. Who is the most famous person you’ve met, if any? Nobody. Do you own any animals that aren’t domestic? No. Have you ever feared that you would lose a body part? No. Do you like gore? Yeah, generally. Do you like to drink water? Ugh, I really don't. I wish I did. Have you ever had a wax? I used to get my eyebrows waxed. Do you have any sets of matching bras and underwear? No. Are you any good at improv? Not at ALL.

The economic source

Of income

Of outcome

Let's start with production and human resorces

Workers born in a family supportive in nature financially educationally

Workers born in a family non sulprtive in nature financially educationally

Workers born in a communities supportive and supportive in nature

Support would be satisfying needs from basic to complementary

What we can expect as economically

developing society

Britain needs togrow economic production

Britain doesn't need growth of social communities

Britain hassifficient source of human resources

The past practice of importing immigrants in replacment to economic production has now ended

I come from nonsupportive family and community just like Tesla or Peter

Therefore a society cannot expect me to be extra vigilant extra powerful physically psychologically as I need time to recover

This I call nurturing

Primitive society cannot nurture as they aren't mentally developed evolved to comprehend the system of functioning

English Church might represent English nation obviously

We confide in English language English architecture Jesus Christ

Environment of equality

Unequal environment causes restraints to a person

Some organisations want me to depersonalise because they claim wealth money from depersonalisation

I attempt to individualise resettle clasify as animals cause this zoo state cannot last longer

Fraud people make to support themselves when families failed to support grown up children

Families steal from other people to support own family

In my family parents siblings were stealing from children to support themselves

Whoeverwas the most capable everyone stolen from the person so they didn't have to work

Robin hood must end

Stealing from those who steal

But stealing from intelligence can only decline society

Set a program

I even fed my children by a book

I should write in my CV achievements restraining family of thieves restraining exhusband restraining neglectful community to gain basic access to facilities restraining unlaful employees at public service restraining wrong ideologies

Then achievements of self education self production dormant during restraining others period

Expert in claiming refunds making complaints against fraudulent society restructuring friendships resettling family relations moralising community defending from allians

Britain typically England has allowed access to uncivilised easterners to play games in the public sector institutions

This ethnic minorities who couldn't even succeed on their own ground how they found routs to manipulate crowds from elswhere to gain themselves a wealth they couldn't earn anyhow

This was a free trade from EU with loopholes from east fake marriages fake passports fake monetisation even a market of scam

So the country has resources though not distributed corresctly support not given correctly

Why would a country need extra resources

I question why Colombus wanted to explore furtger while they were rich enough

Exploring is a hard work a high risk

Making a business is a high risk

Making a business to serve the community

Making a business just to earn

Cause tgere are useless jobs useless work positions or at least overrepresented on the market overly competing

Heritage could be claimed one day by a foreign civils like they do to Egypt

Crussaders ran the place took over ancient monuments no one can persuade them they didn't make it

I'm just saving you a time

Biological match a priority

Avoiding services and properties won't solve problems

Instead of avoiding eliminate problems

Thank you

Those people who had settled life good family good community spoiled because of wealth I can't compare to them neither I can compete

Because I have no energy

I expect male to assist not to be a burden to me on a top of my problems

Private or professional must find proper correspondence

[writing-ideas-inc]

I need to write an allegory ASAP FOR school but I have no idea what to write on do you have any storyline suggestions?

Hi! So sorry I didnt see this till now. For any of you who don't know, an allegory is "a story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one." A good example for this would the book Animal Farm which is am allegory for the Russian Revolution. Ideas for what the deeper meaning/hidden comparison is:Historical-• Civil War• Revolutionary War• WW1 or WW2 • Colombus coming to America• The Cold War • The Boston Tea Party• The Protestant Reformation and/or Catholic Counter Reformation • The Renaissance • The lives of Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, other religous figures ^^ It would be pretty cool of you could put all of them in an allegorical comparison together•The Black Death• The Industrial Revolution • Salem witch trials• The Atlantic slave trade • The mafia • Julius Caesar Political-• America's two party system• Gun violence • Pro life vs Pro choice • Legalization of gay marriage• BLM • Police violence • Terrorism/ ISIS • Education system • Drugs • The media • The wall • Refugees • Illegal immigrants • Trump• The 2016 electionMoral/ philosophical- • Meaning of life • What happens after death• Existence of God • Religion in general• Lessons like the turtle and the hare • Immortality/mortality The outer layer of the story(like the farm in animal farm; the surface that you literally read about): • Ant colony • Wolf pack• An ecosystem of wild creatures • A simplified (potentially dystopian) society • A zoo • A fantasy world of fairies, vampires, etc. • An alien planet I'd personally go for a historical allegory since it's what I'm most familiar with and I think would be the easiest to write. ☆ You could write about the human invasion of a foreign planet, and that's an allegory for Colombus's imvasion of America. ☆ Two wolves vying to be the next alpha through a series of trickery and foolishness on both ends could represent Hillary vs TrumpAnyone have any other ideas?

Columbus Zoo Works to Preserve Pallas’s Cat

The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is excited to announce the May 23rd birth of a Pallas’s Cat kitten. The kitten’s birth marked the second live offspring ever produced with artificial insemination in Pallas’s Cat.

The Pallas's Cat (Otocolobus manul), also called the ‘manul’, is a small wild cat with distribution in the grasslands and mountains of Central Asia.

Since 2002, the species has been classified as “Near Threatened” on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. It is negatively affected by habitat degradation, predation from species (including domestic dogs), poaching, and secondary poisoning from farming pesticides and rodent control...
