Reindeer
Yup, actual reindeer! Most likely Santa’s herd, on loan for the summer zoo season? ps…and no, he wasn’t there. There’s a pub in town so we’ll say he was ‘at the well’
Ostrich
Tall and spooky these things look like they could peck your eyeballs out!
Oryx
Smokin fast horse-like animal with long slender horns….kinda neat.
