Animated by: Mike Scott, South Africa, Written by: John Vlismas

John Vlismas is one of South Africa's most prolific comedians and his animated zoo takes a tongue in cheek look at the inhabitants of Johannesburg. An aesthetic reminiscent of previous comic strips such as "Boogie and Bru", artist Mike Scott uses limited line animation to bring to life the voices of John Vlismas. This animation is a reflection on contemporary South African identities and draws from archetypal characters that on some levels transcend South Africa, such as the wheeler-dealer Meercat, the camp Lion, and the stoner Bush-baby.
