... that the
Sugar Puffs bear once escaped from Clinton Keeling's home zoo – an establishment described as being run with an "ambivalent approach to safety"?
"It was the home of ‘the Sugar Puffs Bear’, who [...] broke from his cage one year. He was recaptured after being spotted on the loose by a local farmhand."
"Looking back now, it amazes me how dangerous it was to visit our zoo in those days before health and safety was invented [...] My mother and father, Jill and Clinton, had an ambivalent approach to safety."

Not a review, just a suggestion. The hook compelled me to click on "Sugar Puffs bear" only to find out that the link isn't even about the bear. If the goal is to direct traffic to the Keeling article, I'd suggest eliminating the indirect link for "Sugar Puffs bear".

New enough, long enough, neutral, sourced, and copyvio free.
MIDI, if you have access to Jeremy's book, page numbers would be nice to have. I think the hook is fine as is but am proposing/reformulating a couple ALTs below for consideration.
