Zookeeper Can’t Take It Anymore, Decides To Add Pokemon Go Signs Next To Animals
Pokemon Go has officially taken over the world, and whether you like it or not, resistance is futile. But one zookeeper in Birmingham, Alabama has recently come up with a great way to get fans of the massively popular game to pay more attention to the ACTUAL animals on display at Birmingham Zoo. How? She gave the zoo’s exhibit signs a Pokemon Go makeover!
She made the signs after noticing that many people were visiting the zoo just to capture Pokemon. So in order to try to engage them with the exhibits, she decided to make them more Pokemon-friendly. “Decided to jump on the Pokémon Go hype train at the zoo!” wrote the anonymous zookeeper on a Tumblr page called zookeeperproblems. “Hey, if you can’t beat ‘em…” (h/t: dorkly)

THATS so neat. Because all the time when i walk around places i see people with Pokemon GO. I even have Pokemon GO. And now people will look at the signs even more then before. Even my library has Pokemon Go signs.
I still resits. That's probably why I do no understand the signs at all.

I agree, but if they free the animals in captivity they would die almost instantly because they are not used to defending themselves from predators and they won't know how to hunt fpr themselves.

It'd be kinda cool if there were Pokemon cards, too, but it's great anyway!!!
This is why I love the Birmingham Zoo! Great Idea to catch the eye of people.
If it works,then great job! I don't do Pokemon go,but my daughter and granddaughter do.
Hope that they don get it by pokeballs, its already bad to be in jail for life
Actually, Cassowarys are incredibly dangerous when cornered in the wild....they are basically a cross between an ostrich and the raptors from Jurassic Park! http://io9.gizmodo.com/the-absolute-worst-way-to-die-in-the-wild-is-death-by-c-638534080

Most Millenials have been taught that Zoos are just animal concentration camps. Good luck.
