Thousands of nurses at major New York City hospitals could soon go on strike, three years after a walkout scrambled operations at some of the same facilities.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens is being slapped with workplace safety citations and over $14,000 in penalties after a rhino injured a zookeeper in February. The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration launched an inspection of the zoo after Archie the rhino struck a zookeeper, sending her to the hospital. "I think theres some things they may have overlooked or things we disagree with those citations," said Tony Vecchio, executive director of the Jacksonville zoo. The zookeeper injured by the rhino made a full recovery and returned to work at the zoo. "It should be the zoos responsibility to keep their employees safe," zoogoer Jennifer Rodriguez said.
