So he followed me from that point on, on Ogden Avenue avenue to the zoo gate where I unlocked the gate. And when he saw that it was for real, he waved and I waved to him. And that was the kind of thing that at times would happen between going from one place to another. But one night I did get a call, and packed my bag and went down, that one of the animals was in labor and it was a zebu cows. A zebu is an Asian or Indian cow, not necessarily what one would think of as a dangerous animal, but still a formidable hoofed animal. And when I got there, the keeper, Dan Bostrom was his name, who was a true character as a person and as a keeper.
