FEEDING THE ELEPHANTS AT THE BRONX ZOO

Back when I was 7 or 8 years old, just before PASSOVER came around, living 3 blocks from the Boston Road entrance to the zoo, I had the task of taking ALL of the bread we had in our apartment, going to the zoo to feed the bread to the elephants. These days this can't be done any longer. These days this is no longer allowed.

I also remember feeding the ducks and having squirrels climbing up the legs of my corduroy pants to the unshelled peanuts I was feeding them.

Does anyone else remember feeding the animals at the zoo.
