Episode notes

Maki, a 21-year-old ring-tailed lemur, was stolen from his enclosure at The San Francisco Zoo this week. It was the third high-profile theft from the zoo in recent years. News broke Thursday night that Maki had been found in Daly City and returned safely to the zoo. In a conversation recorded before that, Heather Knight and reporter Nora Mishanec discuss the lemur heist and share interviews with the lemur’s caretaker and a lemur expert. | Unlimited Chronicle access: sfchronicle.com/pod
