Onwards Noble Steed! People (and animals) Riding Unusual Animals (Pic dump)

Normally when people ride animals, they ride a horse or a camel or even an elephant.  These people are more eclectic though.

Why not a bear?

This guy likes that idea too.

Well if the dog is big enough, why not?

This cat agrees with that idea.

As well as this monkey.

This dog has the right idea though.  Unfortunately his choice is just a toy though.

This dog, on the other hand, has found his own mount.

Now this is just a bizarre choice.

I used to think hippos were just fat, jolly animals.  I think Hungry, Hungry Hippos commercials probably gave me that impression.  But hippos can be mean.  Probably not the best choice for a mount.

Wow...this may be a worse choice.

                   

Looks like Teddy tamed a Moose.

Not the first time I've seen someone riding an Ostrich, but it's still funny to me to see someone riding a bird.

I guess he got tired of hopping.

Don't think you will get too far on that.  

This is almost normal...Zebra is a close relative of a horse...but still not sure if I've seen someone riding one before.

Finally, a normal mount!  These dogs have the right idea.
