How to “Make” a Zebra?!

with 2 comments

Mohammed Al Bargouthi, A zoo owner in Gaza, came up with a way to add a new specie of animals to his zoo, Farah Land zoo in Gaza, without needing any animals!

The Zebra, is the animal he wants to add to his zoo. Instead of importing them at a cost of 40,000$ and moving them to Gaza through Gaza tunnels, he decided to make them. He got two donkeys, painted them with white painting, and then drew black stripes on them, and that’s it. A great looking Zebra’s ready for children amusement:)

Mohammed Al Bargouthi said that the transformation operation didn’t succeed from the first time, and they had to repeat it again.

He also said that Farah Land zoo used to own Zebras among their animal groups. But All the  Zebras died. They were among the victims that were killed during the recent Israeli attack on Gaza strip.

Under Israeli siege on Gaza strip, Gaza children were deprived from many of happy things normal children enjoy. Even if these animals look fake, but they succeeded to enter the joy to the heart of children, and to draw a smile on their faces.

This is a new form of resistance, and copyrights are reserved to Gaza.
