Zarafa's journey from Africa to Europe was no small feat, and her presence in Paris sparked immense curiosity and wonder. Crowds gathered to catch a glimpse of this exotic animal, with many marveling at her long neck and graceful stature.
The significance of Zarafa's arrival goes beyond mere spectacle; it symbolizes the cultural exchange between nations and the fascination with exotic animals during that time period.
