Hello again everyone!
We did not forget about our original promise to host an event for our backers . Now that we have received the version 2.0 prototype of the rhino Foobler (see photo above), we're ready to have you all come visit! Please watch your email inbox for an invitation to come join us for a Backer's Breakfast at San Francisco Zoo. (We will also film the event for those of you who cannot attend in person.)
We hope we'll see you there!
