Why would zebras costs $30,000?! They are just cheap black and white horses.

I'm skeptical about the cheetahs in that zoo now...lol.

The Chinese zoo with the Golden Lab dressed up liek a lion >

Imagine putting all that work into painting the donkey and what a genius you'd feel like- until the next time it rains. Also, is that guy wearing a ladies' shirt?

You strike me as the kind of guy who will go into the pet store and get sold a fat guinea pig thinking it's a Pomeranian.

It might not just be the cost of the animal but transportation as well. Either way pretty high. Still not surprised by this because a Donkey is going to be vastly cheaper than a Zebra anyways.

It was a Tibetan Mastiff. Nobody would buy a Golden as lion.

I've bought Zebra rugs for $1500 from South Africa where they are farmed so I assume that included transportation and upkeep.

They're already in Africa.

Yea but it's not a live animal the delivery is going to be completely different.

Yea but you still have to deliver them to the place. I don't know what the transportation system is like down there but I have a feeling it's not as easy as hoping on I45 and heading North towards Cairo and everything will be alright.

You know, a country in Africa might not be the best place to try and get a fake Zebra to slide on through unnoticed

Why is this in the war room?

You are way out of line here bro. Totally uncalled for.

They painted that ass white.. and they also blacked that ass.

They're very aggressive and dangerous, probably drives the price up.

Agreed. That’s why I think the $30k includes a lot other than the actual cost of the animal.
