Comments: At a recent trip to the San Diego Zoo I found that the giraffes there seem to find me interesting. Several came right over to me, craning their necks right up to me face-- a little unnerved I proceeded to the next exhibit trying not to notice the giraffes followed me as far as they could. Weird...

I started by posing and importing a lot of animals into Bryce. Then added in the dust for the zebra run.  The scene was rendered in Bryce and the grass in front added with the Painter image hose.
