BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (Associated Press) -- The Christmas ornaments for sale at the Miller Park Zoo's gift shop are partly manufactured by reindeer. Honest!
Staffers make decorations out of droppings from the zoo's two reindeer, Ealu and Rika. The droppings are dried, then clear-coated and either painted or rolled in glitter.
Some folks are surprised at the size of the "gems," which are only about as big as marbles. "Reindeer are so big," zoo maintenance worker Sheldon Williams said. But the droppings are "just a big pile of small."
Well, that should take care of those hard to buy for folks on your list. What could be more unique than a bag of reindeer poop, or as it's more commonly known, Rudy Remnants? Looks like that zoo not only got their shit together, but they figured out how to make a profit from it. I bet they have a very strict returd policy though.
Just when it seems people have too much time on their hands, somebody comes up with something like this, and the whole concept of wasting time is turned on its head. Not to mention waste in general. I bet these doodads move pretty well, though.
Nice to know the true meaning of Christmas hasn't been lost. As long as you can still get all natural products like this, and give gifts in harmony with nature, you are well on your way to connecting with the true spirit of the holidays. I can imagine some of Santa's elves aren't taking too kindly to the idea. Making toys is supposed to be heaps of fun, and I can't see bagging up reindeer droppings as being anything but a whole heap of...something else.
