GAZA CITY: At Gaza's "Happy Land Zoo," donkeys earned their stripes and became zebras.
The two made-in-Gaza zebras have become symbols of life under the Israeli blockade, a local attraction and a bit of a joke.
"The zebras are locally manufactured," said zoo director Mahmud Barghut, grinning from ear to ear. "We take a donkey and draw stripes on it."
