		<title>Dale&#8217;s Party</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone. Dale the stuffed zebra had his annual “black-tie” party yesterday. He likes to think of it as a very formal event (even though it consists of piling together on the green-and-brown bed upstairs). As you can see, everyone is dressed in their tuxedo-best. Now all Dale needs is to learn how to make [...]]]></description>

		<title>Help Buddy Find His Birthday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone – we&#8217;ve got a problem at the zoo, and we need your help! Buddy the Stuffed Bear can&#8217;t remember when his birthday is, and neither can we. We can&#8217;t plan a super cool stuffed animal party without knowing the right date, can we?

We don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s got this adorable little black bear&#8217;s memory [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stuffed Sumo Sandbox Surprise Results</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow! That&#8217;s a mouthful. As promised, this is Finn, (and not V, who&#8217;s back on some island searching for exhibits with Karl – that&#8217;s a story for next time), here to report the outcomes of the Stuffed Zoo Sandbox Sumo match between Mocha the Stuffed Toad and Al Binoche the Stuffed White Tiger. Both are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stuffed Silhouette Game</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone,
We&#8217;re putting the Stuffed Sumo results on hold for a moment in order to bring you a fun, interactive stuffed animal game. This is based on Finn&#8217;s first ACTUAL rainy-day activity (Sunday was very dreary here, and the animals wanted to stay inside).
Finn had everyone playing a classic – drawing each other&#8217;s silhouettes! And [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stuffed Sumo Summer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone, this is Finn. I know you&#8217;ve been hearing a lot from me lately. I&#8217;ve been working real hard on my internship. I figure that, since my job will be about new activities and anti-boredom in the rainy months, the summer is a good time for me to get practice. It&#8217;s easier to come [...]]]></description>

		<title>Barry The Stuffed Fish Gets Bubble-Stuffocated</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay, blog-followers, remember Dr. Parker&#8217;s new invention, the scuba-stuffocator (the one KARL broke on his first time using)? Well, the good scientist has been working harder on it, and has run tests on a new remote version of scuba-stuffocation technology. This is great news for the Zoo, as it could lead to more underwater animal [...]]]></description>

Once again, the animals have been one step ahead of me in my role in the anti-boredom committee. To be fair to me, though, I&#8217;m only supposed to be in charge of activities on rainy days, and we haven&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lemur Grows “Mood Tail”</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has come to the SZ&#8217;s attention that a certain lemur in our midst has grown an exceptionally long tail, and that this tail has been doing strange things.
Melvin has been with us for a little over a year now, and while we love having him here, we are still, as with all our exhibits, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Primates Play Drums</title>

The day Karl and I return from Platypus Archipelago, we not only hear of Cromley&#8217;s bad behavior, but of a commotion from the primate wing of the zoo! Apparently, many of our stuffed monkeys have been trying to start a band. . . And it&#8217;s not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cromley&#8217;s Summer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone,
I&#8217;m sure it says somewhere that this is V posting this, but it&#8217;s actually me, Finn. V and Karl haven&#8217;t returned to the SZ from their Platypus thingie yet. But as you  may know, I am now in charge of rainy-day activities and anti-boredom acts here at the zoo.
And as I&#8217;ve been continuing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Danger on the Platypus Archipelago, part 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(from the previous entry):
And, after two hours of upward, intense hiking, they reached the summit. Needless to say, they weren&#8217;t prepared for what they found there. Hundreds of stuffed animals – everything from snakes to badgers to parrots – were dragging cut stones together, building what what looked it was going to be an enormous [...]]]></description>

		<title>Danger on the Platypus Archipelago, part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(told by SZ correspondent Dr. Parker)
With the hull of their boat once again torn, Stuffed Zoo acquisitioners Karl and V survived their first night shipwrecked on Avocado Island, where they&#8217;ve been haunted by a palindrome-speaking stuffed monkey, Grunty.
“I wonder what happened to Grunty,” V said. “And I wonder if there are others like him on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Danger on the Platypus Archipelago</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(story told by SZ correspondent Dr. Parker)
. . . It was nearly midnight when the two brave, intrepid acquisitioners landed their small boat on Avocado Island – the southernmost island in the famed  Platypus Archipelago. It was a moonless night, and the two had almost missed seeing the island completely. But just before the [...]]]></description>

Our summer plans included reaching the southern tip of the Platypus Archipelago, by way of the Blue Ink strait. But, as we began packing for our boating trip (taking much advice [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hibernation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone, V here. While Karl and I gear up for another summer season of stuffocation, things at the SZ are coming more alive. Hibernation season is over, and many of our stuffed animals are coming out after a looooong nap. Bleary-eyed and hungry, they rejoin their animal friends:
Ceilia the Stuffed Bear for example, came [...]]]></description>

		<title>Acquisitioners Prepare for Summer</title>

Karl and I have been away from SZ most of the winter on our rainforest trip (still no sign of the hampster/seal/pig creature, but it continues to appear in my dreams, and I will not give up), and we&#8217;re here for just a few weeks before we set out again on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stuffed Zoo Staring Contest Results</title>

If you&#8217;ve been keeping up with the SZ blog, you know that I&#8217;ve just been hired as the SZ&#8217;s new Indoor Rainy Day Physical Activity Coalition and Anti-Boredom Committee (I&#8217;m only an intern). My first anti-boredom task was to come up with a fun indoor activity that all the animals could [...]]]></description>

		<title>First Annual Stuffed Zoo Animal Staring Contest</title>

It&#8217;s my job to come up with fun new ideas for activities the animals can do together on rainy days. You see, normally the chimps are playing basketball, the hippos jump-roping, and so on.

		<title>Trout Tales, part two</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“So back to my story,” Kilgore the Stuffed Trout continued.

“I said goodbye to my school of friends, got out of an expensive fishing-without-a-license ticket, and sailed by rented boat to the mouth of the Snarquetupple River, out to the Snaylhat Sea. This was where it made sense for a fish to have a boat! Besides [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trout Tales, part one</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone, V here. I don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ve noticed, but our in-house rainbow trout, Kilgore, has finally returned from his winter abroad. Of course, there were late nights in the aquatic tanks here at the zoo, with everyone listening in as Kilgore spoke of his long journey.
And now, Kilgore has decided to share his [...]]]></description>
