Zoo adventure

One day while a boy was at the Beldan Zoo, something strange happened. He looked at the sky, when the sun winks. The birds began to sing arias, and the dog sat on a bench and read the newspaper. He rub his eyes, wondering in wonder, and look down the path again when two cats are holding fans and waving. A dog passed by eating a hotdog.

Then there was a clatter and the door creaked. And there stood a snake. Then, a thunderous laugh appeared to his left. A deep, hoarse voice echoed from the loudspeaker: "Dear animals, you can watch people in cages every day. Don't feed them!" What? He quickly turns around and saw the most strangest site that he had ever seen. His eyes widened at the wonder of the unseen.

There were people in the cages, and in them they watched and commented on a lion, a tiger, a bear, an elephant, a giraffe and a couple of monkeys, who were obviously having a great time and laughing. Then they saw him and started laughing out loud. - Ha, ha, what a funny creature!

A giant hand touched his shoulder and he turned. In front of him, in a dark steam suit with black sunglasses on his face and with a thick golden chair that hung around his neck, stood a huge gorilla. The boy's jaw clenched. He said, "hey, buddy, where's the nearest cell phone store here?"

"I, I ... I'm not from here," the boy stammered. "Oh, yes. Well OK. I'll be fine," he turned and left.

Somewhere in the street came the sound of sirens. He ran and saw a crocodile crossing green over a zebra. In a nearby park, a bear licked ice cream and convinced himself with a squirrel that strawberry ice cream was tastier than one with hazelnuts and chocolate, while a snake ate hot dog with mustard. The camel drank juice on a straw, while the giraffe smelled flowers on the balcony. A large grey wolf stood to play chess with his neighbor.

He decided to get away from this madness. He stopped the taxi. The big hammer jeep with tinted windows stopped. He jumped in and told the driver to get going as fast as possible. He saw his head nodding as he talked on his cell phone. They set off. In the pizzeria they passed, the lion ate a pizza with chili, the wildebeest sipped a cappuccino, and the ostrich ate a banana - split.

They stopped in front of the train station and he got out. When he wanted to pay, the driver's side window went down and he saw his "old acquaintance" - a gorilla. He gave him two bananas and ran. He ran until he got to sign that read:

We have opened a new Zoo and a new area for animals, if you are a human go two blocks and turn left to your regular Zoo. If this type of Zoo interests you, please, by all means, stay and have fun.
