I may be the only person on earth who can say that they've done a pin-up of a Matschie's tree kangaroo.

Oh, really! I'm sure my coworkers would love to see that--is there a digital image of it somewhere I can link them to?

Holy crap, by rooting around in your website I just turned up the fact that you do a podcast on top of it all. Where do you find the time, energy, inspiration to do so much so well without complete collapse?! (Rhetorical question, no need to think up an answer).

I worked with an old, fat one at Santa Fe Teaching Zoo. His name was Max, and he would try to eat the scraps out of the bucket from the female's side of the enclosure. You seriously had to fight him to get him to let go of the thing. He passed on after I left the program. They got a new, younger male in, and I think they had a joey somewhat recently.
