The little brats are stupid so they are easy to fool. A crappy zoo in Gaza painted a white donkey with black stripes and then charged a busload of kids cash to pet it.

From Reuters here:

Two white donkeys dyed with black stripes delighted Palestinian kids at a small Gaza zoo on Thursday who had never seen a zebra in the flesh.

Nidal Barghouthi, whose father owns the Marah Land zoo, said the two female donkeys were striped using masking tape and women’s hair dye, applied with a paint-brush.

“The first time we used paint but it didn’t look good,” he said. “The children don’t know so they call them zebras and they are happy to see something new.”

A genuine zebra would have been too expensive to bring into Israel-blockaded Gaza via smuggling tunnels under the border with Egypt, said owner Mohammed Bargouthi. “It would have cost me $40,000 to get a real one.”

Bargouthi’s zoo charged an entrance fee of just $15 for a full busload of children.

The nerve of the bastard zookeeper for charging kids money to see a fake zebra.
