In Toronto Zoo

"In Toronto my favorite place is the Metro Zoo
See the kangaroos at play
They've got lions and tigers and monkeys and penguins too
But the polar bears ... the've gone away"

A 3-way lyrical collaboration about the Metro Toronto Zoo by little Mary(voice and cartoons),Fitzfx (animator/photographer) and Steve Paul Simms SPS(music). Adapted from an original song by SPS which can be heard in full at http://www.stevepaulsimms.com and in excerpts elsewhere at http://www.youtube.com/user/fitzfx. Check out In Toronto TTC for more amazing 7-year-old cartoons. More SPS music (with John Jackson) at http://www.myspace.com/jacksonsimms.
Inspired by the polar bear crisis. Two excellent reads: The Geography of Hope by Chris Turner and The Weather makers by Tim Flannery.
Here's to happy days ahead for the TTC.
