Natasha is a middle-aged zookeeper. Nearly invisible at her work and in her social life, she is extremely unhappy. One day she wakes up to find she has a tail. This Kafkaesque turn opens up new opportunities as Natasha starts to accept this new and impossible to ignore transformation. Becoming stronger with her anomaly, Natasha can now take braver actions. Zoology delivers this fairytale like story using an open-ended allegory.
