GC15K80 West Side Zoo (Unknown Cache) in New York, United States created by childofatom

This cache has been archived.

childofatom: After much consideration I am archiving this cache, but worry not I am doing so in order to place a new version of it. As previously stated everyone who has found this cache in recent months has actually been finding an older cache, GC6470, the "1,000,000 in Cash Cache." That information compromises the puzzle of this cache. As a result I have decided to place my own version of the previous cache (Hey, any hide that can last 5 years in NYC is a good one) and to re-work West Side Zoo. Look for both of those caches as they hopefully get published in the next week or so.

Geocache Description:

Everyone knows Central Park Zoo, but on the other side of the park live some OTHER animals. To access them you'll have to enter the subway station at the marked coordinates. Cache is not in this location but nearby.

On the uptown platform of the 81st street B, C stop you'll find the animals listed below. If you pay VERY careful attention to them you'll find that some of them are willing to answer a few questions for you. Most of them are silent on the issue though. It's up to you to figure out the difference.

Below is a list of animals and possible answers to your questions. Only the animals that have demonstrated their openness to answering your questions will give you the correct answers. The others are false.

The Gull says that the north coordinates are:40 46.992
The Ducks say that the west coordinates are:073 58.368
The Alligator says that the cache is located in Riverside Park.
The Coelacanth says that the north coordinates are: 40 47.008
