Zebras. I figured that one was rather obvious. :-) I also love Barred Owls, and to a lesser extent, spiders and Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches. I know enough about Barred Owls to recognize the difference between the males and females calls, what they like to eat, where they like to live, and when I hear one in my yard at night, I go outside immediately to catch a glimpse of it.
