Still Waters Posted August 7, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2014 A zoo in the Black Sea peninsula of Crimea has welcomed its latest arrival -- a "zebroid", or "zonkey", which was born after a lonesome zebra got intimate with a donkey. Named Telegraph by keepers at the Taigan zoo park in southern Crimea, the foal's head and body are the solid brown of a donkey but his legs have the characteristic black stripes of a zebra. https://uk.news.yaho...75.html#geH3TMX We've had threads before about 'zonkeys', it seems they're becoming quite fashionable in zoos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EllJay Posted August 7, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Cute one. Regarding the name; I guess zonkey sounds a bit better than assbra or zebass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magikgoddess Posted August 15, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 15, 2014 It's amazing the zoo hybrids that can be produced today. Too bad the little guy didn't have more stripes. Thanks for sharing the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
