When I was a kid, I loved going to the zoo and seeing the animals.  I still do, even though I haven't gone in ages.  Most people love the monkeys or the lions and tigers, but my favorite was always the capybara exhibit.  I think it's because it was astounding to me that rodents could get that big.  Plus, they're cute   Anyway, my local zoo just got a new capybara named Mozzarella.  And since life can be a bit chaotic, I thought today's prompts could use a zoo theme.  There's also the matter of the missing giraffe in Texas.  I know Texas is big, but how the heck do you lose a giraffe??? 

PT Prompt #346:

Your local zoo just got a new animal and is holding a contest to name it.  You win the contest.  What's the animal, its name, and what did you win?

PT Prompt #347:

Your job is crazy and feels like a literal zoo.  With so much on your plate, you end up making a colossal mistake.  What's the outcome?  Does it end badly or surprisingly well?
