A zedonk has been born at the Chestatee Wildlife Preserve in Dahlonega, Georgia. This video isn’t of that particular zedonk, but it is of another zedonk and shows what they look like.
In case you’re wondering what a zedonk is, it’s a cross between a zebra and a donkey. And it looks like a donkey, with a brown body but black and white stripey legs giving its zebra credentials away.
The zedonk in Georgia has been named Pippi Longstocking because of the stripey-socked legs. The preserve is hoping the arrival of this strange hybrid creature will increase visitor numbers.
Zedonks are rare but there have been a number cataloged over the years. They’re cute as hell, but ultimately a little pointless.
