For the first time since I came to China, I took my kids to a local zoo.  Now, anyone who has been to a zoo here knows the poor state of the animals, conditions, etc...  But this isn't the focus of this post.

The focus is how the animals (the zoo environment) gets their revenge for being mishandled.  During my zoo visit, I saw two great examples of this.

The first was a camel who was being taunted relentlesly by a little girl, calmly walked up to the little girl and spit point blank in her face.  It was a beautiful shot that cleared the opening in the chainlink fence and struck her face dead center.  I nearly laughed till I couldn't breath.  The camel then serenely walked away to another part of its enclosure.

The second was when we were watching a 'wild animal' show.  After parading around over worked dogs, monkeys, bears and ponies, they brought out the tigers.  Among the tigers was one of the largest female Bengal's I have ever seen.

From the look on that tigers face, you could tell she was not a happy camper.  As she was paraded around the stage she only stopped briefly to let out a 10 meter arc of piss, hitting at least 50 people in the audience.  The stage hands continued on like absolutely nothing had happened.   The tiger did the same thing a few minutes later to a guy who got a little too close with his fancy camera.  Covered him head to toe.

I almost pissed myself because I was laughing so hard.

What about you?  What instances of the environment taking its revenge have you seen?
