Bugs Bunny and a Penguin in 8 Ball Bunny.

I'd say that qualifies as * Jungle Style* even if it's in South America. It's weird how when I hear the word "Jungle" I immediately think of Africa but I think the jungles of South America and Asia are probably denser than the ones in Africa. Is this just an American thing since we don't really have any of our own? Or is it embedded in me because the idea of trekking through the jungles of South America seems like a muddy Mosquito filled headache where in Africa the idea of going on Safari, staying in a lodge and old British guys with monocles seems much more stress free. As for Asia the Tiger scene in Apocalypse Now or the idea of annoying Monkeys stealing my food pretty much means stay away to me. Africa it is!

Oh and also I refuse to call a Jungle by it's PC name "Rain Forest"
