Thanks, Patti - that's a great resource. I probably could have gone that extra mile and looked up the scientific name backwards, and would have found "zenzo". |

Asker: Hi, Muriel: Slam dunk, it is! I found this wonderful web site for the zoo
http://www.ihn.chiapas.gob.mx/ihn/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=212:zenzo&catid=34:rt-demo-content
where (after wasting hours yesterday doing research) you can look up each animal and get the scientific names and ENGLISH names. It is misspelled, it seems, in my text and should be ZENZO. Cute little guy, isn't he?! Thanks, and I'll grade as soon as the 24 have passed. Hope you're having a nice Sunday!
Asker: I'm sure you could have found it, but believe me, I'm so grateful for the any and all help!
