Project Insomnia

Project Insomnia is many things, but in this context it is simply a "braindump" of whatever I happen to be thinking/reading/watching/doing at the moment. Parental guidance suggested.

Nice to see a story about the San Francisco Zoo that doesn't involve the death of an animal – with two elephants and a gorilla, it's been a hard couple of months for them. Today, The Chronicle's Patricia Yollin relates the story of the zoo's 4 giraffes moving to their new habitat, the 3-acre "African Savanna".
As the giraffe move began, zoo veterinarian Jacqueline Jencek said any number of things could go wrong. For example, a giraffe could slip and fall, hurting its head or breaking its leg, or a human could be kicked.

"The larger the animal, the more challenging and worrisome the move," she said. "There's some adrenaline going on today. It's quite dangerous what we're doing."
The article features a couple of pictures of the giraffes checking out their new home.
