Meet Zonkey Rare Zebra – A Beautiful Crossbreeding Result 

Posted on November 13, 2018 by Horse Spirit

Have you ever heard of Zonkeys? The Zonkey is a hybrid animal that is created by cross-breeding two different species of animal that belong to the same genetic group. Technically though, an individual is only classed as a Zonkey if it is sired from a male Zebra and female Donkey, as one that has a male Donkey and female Zebra parents is known as a Zedonk.

A Zonkey cannot produce offspring and they also can live in the wild but most of them are found in zoos. They might look unusual but their appearance is extraordinary and when you take a closer look in the video below you are going to love these zonkeys. The video was taken in a zoo in Mexico showing Khumba, the adorable zonkey. The animal resembles a zebra with similar facial features and body shape. Khumba has perfectly striped legs but the upper body is brown making it, at least sort of, look like a donkey.

Khumba is really playful as it enjoys running a lot and it spends a lot of time chasing after its mother at the zoo. We know that love has no boundaries and it comes in all kinds of forms and types and zonkeys are the result of such unusual love stories. Watch the video!
