Another fun flamingo fact; they are attracted to vibrant colors. Our trivia team won a behind the scenes tour of the OKC Zoo a few years ago. We all got to line up to feed the flamingos.

Another "fun-fact" about flamingos: the Romans used to eat their tongues. Serving “Roast Fenicopterus” or “scarlet-wing” was considered an elite status symbol. Fire up the grill next time I'm in OKC and I'll work on procuring this rare meal. Here's a recipe I found:
Have you read about the tiger called The Demon of Champawat? Apparently it killed over 430 people in Nepal and India before finally being taken out by Jim Corbett. Man-Eaters of Kumaon is his book, and there are some intense hunting stories that I think you'd enjoy. I'd probably spend a little less time in the woods if I lived in an area with tigers.
