People say imitation is the highest form of flattery. But for the zoo residents at Chessington World of Adventures, the trend for animal print is causing some serious confusion.
Following the launch of the park’s African experience Zufari, which allows guests to take an off-road “safari”, the animals are apparently “becoming baffled” by the ever increasing array of different prints. And we can understand why.
As potential prey to their closest neighbours, the animals have to constantly be on high alert. It would be disconcerting therefore, for a Zebra to suddenly catch sight of a Leopard on its patch. A very small Leopard, in skinny jeans. Smiling and pointing an iPhone. And what’s that holding hands with the Leopard… a Tiger? Oh dear, two fashions have coincided to form every real animals nightmare, the excessive adoration for animal print and the dreaded ‘hilarious’ onesie. Won’t be funny when you’re impaled on the horns of a Rhino, mate.
If the seriousness of this situation doesn’t hit home to the parks visitors on getting dressed, it will when they arrive in a ‘funky’ pair of cow print trousers. Simply put, you aint getting in. Chessington has employed bouncers to sort out the rebels with a fetching boiler suit.
Animal prints can be offensive at the best of times, so this move by Chessington could be a saving grace to its sartorial stance. There’s a fine line between the elegant chicness of a zebra print scarf, and the overwhelming tackiness of a furry zebra jacket complete with a ‘cute’ pair of ears. You’re not cute. You’re a middle aged woman wearing the same outfit as the toddler in the pram behind you. You’re actually upsetting the king of the jungle in that get up.
