University of Maryland had statues of "Fear the Turtle" Testudo back in 2006 for its 150th anniversary - https://www.pinterest.com/pin/157414949447334645/ , https://dangerdan22.wordpress.com/2012/03/17/a-parade-of-terrapins/ , http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4180/908/1024/DSCF3084.jpg?x. Baltimore and the Inner Harbor had the Crabtown Project in 2005 for school benefits - http://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/bal-crabs-photogallery-photogallery.html And in 2002, DC had the "Party Animals" project - 100 Donkeys and 100 Elephants - to be auctioned to help support the arts - http://www.calligraphersguild.org/elephant.html , http://www.jophan.org/safari/ So, yeah, seems to have been a thing around the turn of the century... --- Philip
