Imposter Sighting

Sunday I took my youngest son to the Omaha Zoo and spotted what was reported to be a long clawed otter. This had to be an imposter because I could find Angelo nowhere to be found.

Not our otter

I have seen something similar to a long clawed otter in a zoo as well. It was definitely not our Anglo critter; the imposter I saw was not nearly so urbane or erudite as our friend.

Wouldn't that be "color-challenged" sheep?
