Is that a possibility for a civilian?

You could see a lot of intelligence in his eyes. He was great with the keepers and his kids running around. I think he thrived on being needed.

I live in MA but have family in Long Island. We were planning a trip this summer but when my mom died the trip was postponed.

Thank you for the show! It helps me visit with the animals all the way in MA. You guys are amazing!

DO YOU THINK THAT HIS CHILDREN WILL INHERIT HIS HEART PROBLEM. I SURE DO HOPE IT DOES NOT CUT HIS LIFE SHORT. HE SHOULD BE AROUND AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. YOU ALL DO SUCH WONDERFUL WORK. THANK YOU.
