- aaron695 8y agoI must admit I would have thought it'd have to be a joke but it seems the zoo doubled down http://www.nogoumfm.net/news/2018/07/%D8%B4%D8%A7%D9%87%D8%AF-%D9%85%D8%AD%D8%A7%D9%81%D8%B8%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%87%D8%B1%D8%A9-%D8%AA%D9%88%D8%B6%D8%AD-%D8%AD%D9%82%D9%8A%D9%82%D8%A9-%D8%AA%D8%B2%D9%88%D9%8A%D8%B1/ http://www.nogoumfm.net/news/2018/07/%D8%B4%D8%A7%D9%87%D8%A... I did like the Gaza story on how for a real Zebra it'd cost $30,000 and it would have to be smuggled in through tunnels so they painted a donkey out of practicality. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/dispatches/2009/07/donkey_business.html http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/dispatches/2... Maybe it's just me but I think a story about seeing a fake zebra as a kid is a much better learning/life experience than seeing a real one. I assume I have seen a zebra in a zoo, but no actual idea, a fake one I'd remember.
