Coming soon: the Chai plush doll?Reader HoleInOne responds to Should the Elephant-Impregnating Woodland Park Zoo Get a Tax Exemption?”Tax exemption?! You’ve got to be kidding. The zoo is a for profit corporation masquerading as a non-profit. They’re trying to become Disney-On-Phinney! Let’s get real.”If the animals had their say, they’d be back in the wild where they belong. If Gertie could have lived a lot longer by having more space and getting a LOT more exercise, then something good should come out of her death.”FREE GERTIE!!! And free the elephants who are going to die just like Gertie if they don’t get out of there!!!!”
