used to be the cage of Sally the oraES outang.
The Geological Park people explain that there is
absolutely other place I'm the park where this
animal can be properly housed. But for the fact
that this particular cage is large Well warmed and
provided with strong iron bars, the arrival Of the
Gfridi would have given the managers bad time
In providing for the rhinoceros It IS fortunate that
this cage was empty. front panel Of bars was
taken out tho visitors netting taken down, the
huge crate containing the animal showed into
the building rollers. hoisted up 20 the level OF
the cage floor and the door OF the crate opened
into the cage. without instant's hesitation and
in highly sensible manner. the much travelled
rhinoceros backed out OF the crate, joyously took
possession of the larger apartment and immediate
ly went TO work the hay.
Just what will be done when a large and fierce
ape arrives knows. but, at all events. the
"rhno" must remain where she is until the Board
