1. In the park:
- Tiger walking: A person is walking a tiger on a leash as if it were a domestic pet. This is very unusual because tigers are wild animals and are not suitable to be kept as pets in public parks.
- Hippopotamus standing near a pond: There is a hippo standing nearby in a small pond. Hippos are large, dangerous and are more commonly found in rivers and lakes in Africa, not in public parks.
- Bathtub kite: A little girl is flying a kite shaped like a bathtub, which is quite unusual. Usually, kites are designed with various patterns or shapes such as diamonds or dragons combined with many eye-catching colors
So, there are diverse and inappropriate elements such as tigers and hippos in a normal park scene, contrasting with people playing soccer or picnicking, which adds a surreal feel to the picture.
2. At the zoo:
- Traffic lights and road signs: Inside the zoo, there are traffic lights and road signs as if it were a street. This is very unusual as such traffic control devices are not used inside the zoo walkways.
- People inside the cage: There are people sitting comfortably inside the animal cages, this is not a common or safe practice. Visitors should always stay outside for their own safety and the comfort of the animals.
- Animals outside the cage: A monkey and a parrot are outside the cage, roaming freely on the zoo grounds. Normally, animals in zoos are kept in their designated habitats to prevent any safety issues for both the animals and visitors.
- Normal scene without guards: It feels normal, there are no zookeepers or guards around to ensure the safety of visitors or animals, this is not realistic for a real zoo setting.
The overall setting of the zoo is chaotic and lacks the structured and safe environment typical of zoos. In particular, some animals such as monkeys and parrots that appear outside their cages or block human access are quite normal to visitors. Both images blend the normal with the fantastic, creating a playful yet strange contrast to what one would expect in this familiar setting. The introduction of wild animals into normal environments such as parks and zoos with out-of-place objects or roles creates fun and humor.
