Calgary Zoo's 12 days of Poo

The Calgary Zoo is taking a different spin with the 12 days of Christmas, they’re talking about poo, yes, poo. We’re not talking about Mr. Hanky the Christmas Poo, that we all know and love from the animated series South Park, either.

The Calgary Zoo is taking to twitter to educate us all on the different animals and their excrement.

At the time of publishing the Calgary Zoo was on Day 9 for their “12 Days of Poo” campaign.

It’s definitely an interesting way of encouraging people to get annual memberships during the holiday season.
