Hawkers and hassle: Zoo children
me and my friend had the innocent idea of going to the zoo to see its fauna. We could never imagine that herds of teenaged children are following people (girls) harassing and trying to sell...I believe that were sexual harrasments but I cannot say for sure.

They go near you and offer something they call "shakes" and ask for money. I f anyone is able to translate that into an obvious sentence please advise people here that are planning trips to Cairo and have the idea of visiting the zoo...

Don't look at them, ignore them and keep walking and taking pics of the animals as I did.

Alternative is to watch all animals in Egypt like cats which are abundant, dogs, donkeys, snakes, lizards, birds, camels, horses...
