My Family And Other Animals
(My mother-in-law is holding my toddler up to look at an animal at the zoo.)
Mother-in-law: “Look at the hippo! Hi, hippo!”
(She sees a zookeeper nearby and calls him over.)
Mother-in-law: “Excuse me, do you ever let children pet the hippo?”
Zookeeper: *horrified* “No. No, we do not let children pet the animals. And… that’s a rhinoceros.”
