The dictionary says "exotic" is "strikingly different" or "from elsewhere". What I see here is definitely strikingly different. I am suffering from wanderlust.

This is the picture I would show anyone if I have to explain what it looks like where I live. The biome is classed as flat, Savannah grass land. Can you see the grain (corn) silos in the distance? That is where I live. Some people are so blasé that they hardly see the animals when they travel through every day.

Some sources say this is the only area where Zebra and Gemsbuck occurred. To the east no Gemsbuck and  to the west hardly a Zebra.

Oh btw: Thank you for joining the thread Lynell. ;)
