During one worm race at Wild Rumpus Books in Minneapolis, Kevin had to block not only the bookstore cat, but also the bookstore rooster from getting too close to the racing worms. California Academy of Sciences doesn't permit outside worms, but they provided him with a bin of their own homegrown red wigglers to share with audiences.
