Jenny Giraffe Discovers the French Quarter

New Orleans - it's a beautiful town of old-world architecture and elegance, but it has its dark side - runaway crime, gory black magic, and a red light district the size of Nebraska. Jenny is a willful girl from a sheltered background out on her own for the first time. Shortly after coming to town she falls in with feckless group of hyenas, and is soon taking a wild tour of the Big Easy's seamy side. A noisy altercation after a late night on the town lands her on the bad side of a thuggish hippopotamus named Puffin, whose ruthless gang of wolverines dominates every contraband market in the Quarter. Meanwhile a cabal of voodoo priests is out for Jenny's neck - literally - as they need her larynx (as well as an otter's tonsil) for a purification ceremony that a rich client has ordered. Jenny pulls through with her wits and her dignity more or less intact, although she does debase herself rather horribly to get her share of beads during Mardi Gras (something that we can both forgive and understand in light of her neck length). All told a gripping story that can serve as a cautionary tale for any young creature leaving the game reserve for the bright lights of sin city.
