Here is an amusing (though I don’t believe intentionally) sign that was posted in the National Zoo. The photo was taken in May of 1943. This reminds me of the crazy post we did a while back on the woman who jumped into the lion pit.

Speaking of lions, how about some history behind the lion statues in the opening credits to House of Cards?
The Lions: “Send us some more lost children, the last ones were delicious!” >;-)
