Lydia as usual takes Phil by the hand and steps quickly toward the MAMMALS EXHIBIT. The main gate is tweleve feet high and has two inch thick steel bars. Yet the gate swings open as if a feather's weight.
Phil looks at the gate in a mechanical wonder. As Lydia pulls him along, "I want to see the African Plains Exhibit first!"
The African gate was even taller than the main entrance but barely wide enough for the two humans to stroll inside.
The sidewalk was made of bright red brick and wove it's way out into what looked like a vast area of grassland and patches to trees. Alone the pathway were small signs. Each sign offered the type of animal which might be seen at that spot.
Also on each sign post was a smalller sign. WARNING Stepping off the brick path can be a harzard to your personal life style. Remember that past the walkway only animals live. WALKING into the scene negates all responsibility of the zoo and constitutes a will to become part of the African scene.
Lydia pointed out many different types of animals. Deer of many kinds, cattle, Water Buffalo and Lions. As they walked the heat of the African sun beat down on the scene as well as the veiwing path.
As they walked close to the local water and mud hole a scene of violence and death came into view. A female Water Buffalo and her young calf were drinking along the close bank of the pond. A sudden movement as a crocodile surfaced and grabbed the front legs of the female Water Buffalo. A fight for survival and soon the Buffalo was dragged into the pond for lunch.
This left the small calf alone and open to attack. Lydia pointed down to the helpless calf. "Look he could be killed, he's alone!" As she started to enter the scene and pick up the small animal.
"Hey are you crazy, you can't go into the scene. Remember all the signs say don't go off the walk and enter the scene, said Phil in a panic."
"He's right at my feet, maybe six feet inside the scene, I can't let it die, I can't, said Lydia!"
Looking right and then left as if crossing a street she stepped off the walkway and onto the African plain. As she bent over to scoop up the calf Lydia screamed.
"Oh God I'm in pain, Phil help me I feel on fire. Help me I can't stand up!"
Phil stood eyes wide and in absolute terror. He saw what Lydia could not even though she was in pain. Over the waistband of her slacks was growing a black, furry, boney, tail. A tail of a Water Buffalo.
Lydia screamed for help as Phil stood transfixed on watching his girlfriend become part of the African scene. Lydia's hips bloomed into large rounded well muscled hind quarters. Her stomac so thin became bloated out as ribs expanded.
Lydia was at first not understanding her pain and posture. Then as her rump and legs changed she had a good idea why she sould not have left the path.
Moaning as she developed an udder and her sexual parts moved to new locations. Arms grew and front knees with cloven hooves attached. Moaning grew faster and more intense till the moan seemed to blend into a low Moooing.
Lydia felt the need as a stream of hot liquid poured from her well developed Buffalo ass. This caused the calf's instinct to kick in and he sniffed her urine scent. Out of the act the thought of Mother, as the calf approached he searched her teats and began to suckle.
This whole scene was so terrifying to Phil he just started to run down the path.
Lydia continued to change till the suckling calf felt normal and her human self blended with her new Buffalo self. Walking from the water hole she joined the herd of buffalo and mooed for her calf to join along.
