Well, I had just decided it was actually rather amusing, and they pretty much stopped doing it. *L* I've definitely learned the "ignore it and it'll go away" trick, as I used to pretend to be offended quite a lot and learned that just drives it on. I have to say, it is rather amusing the could get your name SO WRONG, though. Hehe. Ah, the pleasures of having unique names ;)
Kinkajous are adorably cute, but terribly temperamental. It's hard to display them because they act so cute (clinging to your arm, climbing down your shirt sleeve, hanging by their tail), everyone wants one as a pet and they're SUCH bad pets.
Our eagle, Chinook, has landed on TOP of the bandshell instead of on stage the past 3 days, and had to be called down. Technically we call a fly off if they fly out of view of the stage and we don't know where they went. Like that first day she flew into a construction area further down the zoo, and it took us a minute or two to run over and locate her. She's got an injured wing so she can't fly too far, but some of our other birds wear telemetry units so if they fly off we can track them that way.
