Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
A title says a lot about a story!. Ultimately, only you can pick the title for this!. You know what you are trying to convey by telling it!.
You might want to try titles that provide contrast, since you have a white vs!. black theme!. You could use something based on zebras, since it is in a zoo and that incorporates those colors!. You might also want to play up the animal relation, because the fight that breaks out sounds very primal!.
Another angle would be to focus on the man!. Since he really provides the crux of the story, the title would relate well!. No matter which angle you choose when picking a title, I'd suggest you finish the story first!. Figure out what type of man mugs them!. Then, once it's complete, pick a title!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
