Article length and age are fine, and fact is referenced, but the hook seems confusing out of the context of the article, and should probably be clarified. Noahfgodard (talk) 20:42, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

I've added ALT1. -- RoySmith (talk) 20:53, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Noahfgodard, are you good with ALT1? -- RoySmith (talk) 14:02, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

@RoySmith: Hi, sorry for the delay. I think my hesitation with it (and the original hook) is that it doesn't explain what a Zoo key is to someone who isn't already familiar with the concpet. Do you think you could write one that provides somewhat more background? Noahfgodard (talk) 14:23, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Noahfgodard, added ALT2. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:29, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

ALT2 looks good to me. Noahfgodard (talk) 15:48, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
