Lyndon agreed, and the two ambled down the path toward the southeast gate of the White House. Behind the fence were 100 pop-eyed out-of-towners- many of them, as it turned out, from foreign countries -who were in town to see the cherry blossoms and other notable sights. Lyndon walked up to the gates and said to them: "Would you like to take a walk with me before lunch?" With that, he ordered the gates...

There, packs of as many as 1,000 wild pigs grunt through the bush, uprooting and trampling all the foliage in their path. Timid, 600-lb. tapirs-distant relatives of the African rhinoceros-plod warily along the narrow, muddy trails. Chachalacas, parrots and howler monkeys noise endlessly from the tree tops...
