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?
