 For some crazy reason I like the look of these creatures. I love the way their hair looks in pictures and they have rather piercing eyes :-)

According to the zoo map these are warty-pigs, or warthogs. I think they are rather striking :-)

Processing:
Duplicate original and apply shadow/highlight
Siver Efex Pro to convert to b&w on both the original and the shadow/highlight version
Blend the two together (aim is to bring the guy out of the shadow just a tad)
Resize, USM
