Get your freak on

In the UAE exploitation is de rigeur. Because it’s 50 Deg in summer and it’s Ramadan, one of the country’s zoos has decided to stay open at night – 9 pm to 2 am. Supposedly the animals are much more active and awake because it’s cooler than the day.
I am a genuine night animal, so I went to check it out. Obviously nobody told the lions about this change in timings, so they were fast asleep. However, it was the giraffes that most freaked me out. They are definitely the freaks of evolution. Cute, mutated, freaks of nature.
