The Alaska Zoo Gift Shop is now carrying my Christmas Cards. I know, I know, it's not even past Halloween and Thanksgiving has yet to rear it's gravy-soaked head yet but...

Almost all of the animals at the Alaska Zoo are rescues from Alaska that cannot be release due to injury or habituation as well as animals on the Endangered Species List that are part of species survival plans representing arctic and sub-arctic species. |

...here's an idea, skip Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Walmart Wednesday, and Costco Caturday(?). Instead spend some time learning about nature and animals at the Alaska Zoo or your local zoo, wildlife or sea life center, forest preserve, national park, or wherever you go to get back to whatever piece of wilderness you find. If they have a gift shop or donation jar, spend a couple dollars on something and make your hard earned money go to something more worthwhile than corporate profit. At least here at the Alaska Zoo, all purchases go to support the zoo and its mission of education and care of animals.
