the zoo story is about a giraffe originally from a zoo in the West Bank, shown by Peter Friedl at Documenta 12. The giraffe died from banging his head in distress during an Israeli bombing raid. Apparently the reason he looks so odd and wonky is that the taxidermy was carried out by someone who didn't really know what he was doing.
