April Fool

April fool’s day is very big in Ukraine. Many people at the zoo played pranks on each other. Some were basic – you’ve got paint/dust on your back. Others were much more complex.
The bat keeper filled out a management request. He needed some extra supplies for the bats. To maintain optimum health, he needed 150ml of alcohol per bat per day. This was sent to the Deputy Head of Zoology for his approval. It prompted raucous laughter and got his stamp of approval. The request was then sent to the Zoo Director for her stamp. She stamped it and sent it onto the Supplies Department who stamped it and returned it to the original joker. It is now framed and on the office wall, but no one got any vodka!
