Young zedonk and mom

Folks at the Chestastee Wildlife Preserve in Dahlonega, Ga., were just a tad surprised when one of the preserve’s female donkeys gave birth to a foal with stripes on its legs and muzzle.

The foal turned out to be a zedonk, a zebra-donkey hybrid. Apparently the female donkey had been engaged in a little hanky-panky with a male zebra.

The Gainesville Times has the full story, with photos.
