Nice photo. Our zoo here in our little town actually works together with the San Diego zoo on the preservation of endangered species, by exchanging animals for breeding purposes for example.

@Wolfgang Prigge: That's wonderful, anything that helps protect the animals against the ravages of human is a blessing

What are you doing in San Diego? This deer actually looks like someone I know.
