A day at the zoo 5
Our winning picks from “a day at the zoo 4”: “Hot dog cart labeled “zoo meat””
So now, suggest in the comments below what you think should be happening in the spot labeled above. It can be as much or as little as you want, it can feature guests, animals, additional scenery, whatever.
Then I’ll pick some of my favorite comments along with the top comments (based on likes), and will have members of the Interactive Comics tier vote on which one of those suggestions should be picked and officially added to the illustration.
And we’re gonna keep doing this until the whole ass picture is jam ass full (of ass). Make sense? Still no?? OK LETS GO

I think the empty cage is already great. Just add some torn bars.
A single rabbit. Or your usual dog. Sad looking, or nonchalant. Maybe smoking a cigarette or vaping. No onlookers near it. No one looking at it. Maybe a sign that says ‘Rabbit’. Or ‘A most interesting rabbit’. Even if you have gone for the dog option. Then have a zone around it where, as this artistic masterpiece fills up, nothing and no one ever is, or ever is looking at it or near it. At the end it’s just a very very empty space of which the universe is oblivious. Expect … somewhere else, on the other side of the zoo is a hat and t-shirt stand. All they sell are hats and shirts with a picture of the rabbit/dog on. People are buying them. A small child is being pulled away by his mum, pointing at the shirts and crying, obviously wanting one. When you eventually have monkeys, a monkey is wearing one of the hats. Maybe somewhere is one of those photo opportunities - a picture of the rabbit/dog with a someone/something standing next to it, and a hole that people but their face into.

A reenactment of Pride and Predatory, but with monkeys
Mimes..... doing unspeakable mime tricks.
A couple of giraffes are eating from the trees outside the cage, while a crowd watches a zoo keeper ravenously eating from a bag labeled “giraffe food.”
Guy trying to convince everyone he's genuinely just a zoo employee who got trapped in the cage but nobody believes him because of the sign that says "real good chameleon"
A couple of lions passionately making out while someone ogles them creepily.
A toucan just trying her darndest to get all of her paperwork done before the end of the day.
An aquarium, full of fish, but not full of water for some reason
A cage jam ass full of ass.
Hot Dog cart labelled 'Zoo Meat'
That cage is big enough for King Kong! But, because of copyright reasons, we need to rename him to „Ape Albert“. Does he even fit in there? Might be crammed.
an improv group being punished for their crime (their crime being improv)
Monkeys doing various monkey things, among which one who's throwing various stolen hats from a box labeled "various stolen hats" into the enclosure above it and making a sizeable, stylish pile of accesories, and another clinging to the bars on the opposite side, next to the grassy enclosure, wearing a faux pearl necklace, apparently gossipping and pointing towards the right, RIGHT in the guy waiting at the zoo meat stand's line of sight.
Various species of African animals playing Poker
A dog wearing a fake lions mane and a tshirt that reads “I’m not Lion” but the word not is crudely scribbled over with crayon
A sign that says "The most dangerous animal of all... MAN!!" and then some humans just chilling in the cage doing human stuff.

Ostritch chicks like those chicken chick buckets at a tractor supply
An escape scene, with a hole dug next to a straw bed with a crudely made dummy of a tiger or something. An escape tunnel exit outside the zoo walls.
It's the biggest cage so a whale crammed inside and a bunch of signs around it with things like: "Newly discovered!" "Land whale" "He's fine" "They all look like that" "Natural habitat: cramped dry spaces" "He loves it here!"
I second land whale so thoroughly that I forfeit my right to submit a suggestion
A bunch of zoo-goers milling about inside the cage, with an orangutan outside the cage watching them with casual interest.
A rather large group of people cheering as a disinterested pair of lemurs in suits fix an office copy machine.
I think it would be funny to see an exhibit of ghosts trapped in a cage. Could be Casper, could be white sheet ghosts, could even be Slimer style. You could also have a few Ghostbusters keeping them "trapped" in there with their fancy-shmancy proton packs.
Better option: a handful of people clearly dressed as ghosts that the ghostbusters keep trapped there.
Inverse circus. Clowns watching children perform.
Fish/aquatic life exhibit
A bottomless pit with a sign that reads “please do not feed the pit”
Animals looking in at humans on display.
I’ve never won one of these! Thank you voting crew!
Thank you for making the best suggestion!
