One of the first "paintings by animals" that I remember was at the
Oregon Zoo by a couple of monkeys ... almost old newsreel stuff.

When we moved to PDX, I got involved with this Zoo and learned that the
entire activity was justified as keeping the animals entertained and not bored.

But then animal rights people made a issue about the Zoo earning $ from selling the "paintings"
and the head zoo keeper was actually forced out of his job over the squabble.

True ? I think so...
