LOCATION: Fairplex in Pomona
          1101 W. McKinley Avenue
          Pomona, CA 91768

DATES: Sept. 12-28, 2003

SHOTS: Here's you: Standing ankle deep in straw while holding an
       oversized baby-bottle full of milk. A hungry pygmy goat is
       suckling like crazy, looking up at you with adoring eyes while
       nearby a pair of call ducks compete with each other for your
       attention. There's absolutely nothing as therapeutic--or as
       tele-genic--as canoodling with the animals at the
       award-winning Great American Petting Zoo.

       So, consider this your VIP invite. The lovable donkeys, goats,
       ducks and llamas (and don't forget the wallabies, pot-bellied
       pigs, and dozens of other furry and feathered creatures!) are
       waiting to meet you at the LA County Fair. This menagerie of
       domestic and exotic animals has been voted most popular
       attraction and for good reason...their well-educated and
       entertaining handlers offer an unforgettable experience to
       every visitor who walks into the pen.

       Suitable for weather background, morning show humor features,
       afternoon news segments, animal grooming and pet care,
       preventing e-coli infections, the emotional and physical
       benefits of interacting with animals, etc.
