So we got these two young Raccoon Dogs at my zoo. They’re brothers, one is big and strong and friendly, the other was the runt of litter and is more standoffish. The zoo they came from hadn’t named them, so they let us keepers pick and then vote on the names we wanted*. I campaigned hard for my name choice, mostly so I could present to you, dear Tumblr
Thor and Loki, Raccoon Dogs.
*this is pretty unusual, normally some high level donor gets to name our animals after their grandkids or something, which is why I STILL don’t have a giraffe named Beyonce.
