After the Painted Panda of Tahiland here we have chance to see the Painted Donkey of Gaza. Gaza City zookeepers have found a creative way of drawing crowds to their dilapidated zoo - by painting their donkeys. The Marah Land Zoo's only two zebras died of hunger earlier this year when they were neglected during the Israel-Hamas war.

The popular animals were too expensive to replace, so the keepers decided to design a pair of donkeys with black and white patterns instead. Aside from the two zebras, the zoo also flaunts an aging tigress, two monkeys, and a selection of birds, rabbits and cats.
