I'm impressed how common these "sightings" are given how rare I would have assumed this type of person would be. But lo and behold...

I was visiting the aquarium some years ago and there was an expert at one of the exhibits talking about "these animals this and these animals that" when suddenly I heard a woman who had several children with her exclaim "Fish are animals?"

I don't recall at the moment how the staff member responded, other than I remember being impressed because it was a very non-judgmental and informative reply to her.

Admittedly, my partner in crime and I were struggling with the darker elements of our animal nature -- beet red from holding back our laughter and our eyes-only conversation wasn't helping.

Guess that dealing with public in that context everyday ot would be a common occurece and they already have a easy non judgmental answer for that
