My brothers birthday at the Zoo.

On the 17th we went to the Detroit Zoo. We had a lot of fun!  While we were there we saw flamingos, whose necks look like wires, because they bend them in such odd ways. We also saw some lions, we were told by the docent how the lions came to the Detroit zoo. She said, there was an abandoned house near to a school and as the school children walked by they would hear what sounded like a lion roaring. The children told the teachers when they arrived at school, but no one would believe them. After a couple weeks of the children continuing to insist that they were still hearing lions roaring, somebody called the police, who checked out the house.  They found that some drug dealers were using the abandoned house as their hideout and had a pair of lions there to scare people away. So that's the story of how the Detroit zoo got two of their lions, believe it or not! Unfortunately we forgot to take any pictures of the lions, but there are many other pictures below.
