Meet Alfred!


Alfred is a blind harbor seal, who is also missing his right eye, but is now happy and safe at the Los Angeles Zoo after being rescued from the New Jersey Shore (and really we all need to be rescued if we're at the NJ Shore). Read Alfred's story here.

I think Alfred needs to hook up with Basil the dog (see below), they have a lot in common, what with both of them being blind and missing their right eye. Perhaps their friendship will be the inspiration for a big screen children's animated feature about two blind animals who team up to save their save their zoo from being turned into strip malls by putting on a show with all the other blind, deaf, and dumb animals, bringing visitors in from far and wide, giving the zoo enough money to stay open forever!!! It's sort of a rip off of Charlotte's Web, but it's not like there are any original ideas out there anyway.
