Paul, the Proconsul skull replica, goes to an Easter egg hunt at his friend’s house by the lake. He finds a lot of yummy filled eggs. He was having a good time until he noticed that he had stepped in a lot of goose poop.

Pleaser, the Mrs. Ples STS 5 skull replica, made her kids take their shoes off and just washed the kids’ feet off when they were finished hunting for eggs.

Ken, the KNM-ER 1474 skull replica, could not believe they did not clean up the goose poop before placing the eggs out on the lawn. How gross.

Zink, the Zinjanthropus boisei skull replica, offers to arrive early next year and hose off all of the goose poop so the kids do not step in it again.

Pesky, the Peking man skull replica, is bugging his kids to share their Easter candies with him. They are ignoring him.
