Living here in Namibia is like living in a huge zoo...

... or maybe a combination Zoo-Daycare center. :-)

I'm not sure what this zebra was doing here at a fence along the road [almost the entire country has fences along the roads to keep the kudu (moose-sized deer-like animals) from running out into the road], because it's not a game park and they tend to live up in more northern areas of the country.

I'm guessing he was tame, because when we came to a screeching halt, pulled over, walked right up to the fence, he just came right over to us. He was so excited that he almost pulled the fence down as he was leaning on it.
