Attention: anyone in the Washington DC area... 10 a.m. today at the National Zoo the Annual PUMPKIN STOMP :D :D Dozens and dozens of punkins are brought into the elephant enclosure and the dear old "hefalumps" go NUTZ stomping and eating the orange treats. It's really phun! A silly thread, I realize but what the hey :rolleyes:
Are you skipping work and going?? That would be great to see. Nothing like that ever happens around here....but then again, BC doesn't have eleephunts....
How fun, Laurie! :) If you see a link to pictures, I'd love to see them!!!
What do the Woozles get?
Darn it Laurie - I've missed it. Bet that's some sight to behold - Hefalumps playing football with Pumpkins - Richard, the Woozles probably get Thanked for being Referees!!!

I had forgotten about it but hefalumps weren't the only ones to get punkin treats. Go-Rillas and 'rangatangs got some too. Their games get quite a bit messier with all the punkin throwing going on but they really do enjoy it. Laughing Go-rillas get everybody laughing hysterically! They bop each other over the heads with punkin' guts and just get plum silly :D :D :D
Pictures?????????
:D :D
I'm trying KKKaren. I was able to send Slick and Logan a link to the Zoo home page where they had some pictures from last year's "Stomp". I'm trying to get some newer ones :cool:

:D I LOVE baby elephants! Thank you so much for the link.
Karen, I went down to the zoo last year when they first let the little guy outside. I simply couldn't get enough! He would hide behind his momma's leg and peek out just like Dumbo. In fact I had to go rent Dumbo that every evening :D I came home and posted here at PetTalk "We have a new baby elephant". Then I had to continue the thread by saying "... well, not me personnally but...." I did get some funny feedback from that thread :rolleyes: :D ;)
Richard the woozles are at your bar.
They woozle and wobble but they don't fall down (well, rarely) :rolleyes: :p ;)
:D
Kandula *Stompin* a Pumpkin >>>

There's a Media Window on the page to the Hefalump Cam -
but I haven't seen nary a Hefalump nor a Pumpkin all day! :(
My Pumpkin girl got worried until I explained to her that they're not stomping kitties!;) :p
That sounds really fun!
