"Don't Lick It"

On Sunday, we went to the Bronx Zoo with son, daughter-in-law, and the grands.

While taking a shot of the pensive monkey (above), I overheard a mother reprimanding her son, about 4-years-old.  His tongue was just about to take a swipe.

        "Honey, do not lick that," she said.

"But, why?" he asked.
Would YOU ever be tempted to lick something as foul and funky as a moldy, wooden fence directly under the monkey habitat at the Bronx Zoo?

Uh, I don't think so.
