Gorilla, Karisoke founded, 1967, Wednesday evening

[834] [advice-gorilla-1] Tuesday noon: write Gorilla, 1967, and 1972 on the notebook at the children’s corner. Put “Karisoke founded” beside Gorilla. 1967 is the second line on the notebook; 1972 is the next. Before you leave the children’s corner, reread only Gorilla. At the picture book, say Karisoke founded and 1972 aloud.

Gorilla sits in the field note for 1967 under “Karisoke founded”, and the figure beside it is 1972. At the end of the children’s table, check that the label and the notebook match, and correct the notebook if they do not. Do not merge a zoo birthday with the field survey. This week, keep only the field side. A captive western-lineage ape became the language argument. At the children’s corner, open Gorilla so the notebook shows 1967 first, 1972 next, and “Karisoke founded” beside them.

This week, before you open the animal book in the children’s corner, write only the name, the year, and the figure on the notebook, then read those three lines once and close the book. At home, leave the notebook on the shoe shelf and, the next morning, read the three lines aloud once, then shut it. The order is Gorilla, 1967, 1972, then “Karisoke founded”. When the picture book is done, look again only at 1967 for Gorilla and leave 1972 on the notebook.

Do not line the species up by size, danger, or popularity. If someone asks which animal is greater, read the field entry for that year again. Check the picture-book label against the notebook, and leave any ranking space blank. Do not merge a zoo birthday with the field survey. This week, keep only the field side. Match Karisoke founded with 1972 at the children’s corner before you close 1967 for Gorilla. Gorilla sits in the field note for 1967 under “Karisoke founded”, and the figure beside it is 1972.

This week, before you open the animal book in the children’s corner, write only the name, the year, and the figure on the notebook, then read those three lines once and close the book. Gorilla sits in the field note for 1967 under “Karisoke founded”, and the figure beside it is 1972.1967
