CBS was supposed to issue some statement on the Dan Rather Forgeries...I bet that is causing the meltdown...



At zoo, tiger is in; rhino is out
Staffers who did not flee the city combed the Audubon Zoo Wednesday morning, feeding and checking on the 1,500 animals who live there, said public relations director Sarah Burnette.
Hundreds of birds, such as the Marabou stork, were taken from cages exposed to the elements and put in kennels, “like you’d put a dog in,” Burnette said.
Some mammals, such as the rhino, can decide whether to roam their outdoor enclosures or indoor pens. But the white tigers won’t have that option.
“Just in case their enclosure should be breached,” they will be kept in their night pens, Burnette said. “We don’t need them roaming around.”
Burnette said zoo officials hope to re-open Friday

Great plan! What harm could a roaming rhino possibly cause?
