Great stuff Doug. Amazing how the old fella keeps up -- he's doing something right. Piggybacking on the whole pioneer thing, I went back to the Staten Island Zoo last year after many many years, and snapped some pics of the great Carl Kauffeld's office intact just as it was wayyy back then in the 60's and early 70's. Lots of memoirs are on display such as journal entries, photos, preserved specimens in jars, and even his home-made snake hooks. One of the best rattlesnake collections in a single zoo (which is painfully small by the way. The highlight IS the reptile house, lol).
