What a pity that the Department of Lands has decided today that the zebras have to go! Despite being a free tourist attraction and supporting driver safety by encouraging people to stop at the Driver Reviver, the four friends will be herded away quietly this weekend.

Um, incorrect – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bamboo_Harvester.
But Francis the talking Mule was actually a female mule. She just had a deep voice, so made out she was a male. Must have been hard for her so say “I’m Francis with an I”, knowing that she was a female mule. ¡ .~

It’s one of our favorite spots!
To up the antes, next will be rhinoceros or hippopotamus! Or it might be a Rex (George III)?
The sculptures a right next to a dam, and I thought it would be funny to have a lion sculpture stalking the zebras over the bank 🙂 It can be the Lake George African Savannah

Sigh! Not Canberra, but certainly Canberra region.
That looks great. Wouldn’t it be cool to see a whole zoo of animals out there.
Is Lake George Canberra?
I wish Chancellor Stanhope would buy us public art that’s as good as those Zebras.
Sure beats rusty bit of steel pretending to be grass.
i like that !
looks cool.
Fabulous! I love these.
Someone has been painting horses again.
This has to stop.
Interestingly, Mr Ed was actually a zebra painted white to look like a horse!
I saw those yesterday! So cute! They’re actually quite life-like and you keep expecting them to go for a nibble of grass.
