Zoo: risk being near hungry and horny animals, and zookeepers Tod the squishy boy chapter 4 by orangewithlegs

Tod pedals his way to the local zoo. Good news, he lives in one of the few places in the US where he can bike around. The zoo is far off, about 30 minutes away, and a bike ride there is risky, especially with people who kidnap squishes and hot weather; even a normal-sized ride is a risk. Tod knows it might be best to take the bus, which means he is less likely to be kidnapped, but accidents are more likely. Plus, there have been incidents where a squishy or tiny got kidnapped in front of crowds of people, and they just let it happen.

"Well, it's biking or the bus, either is risky"
