What is a Zebroid?
It's a zebra hybrid! Zebra hybrid is an all-encompassing term for a zebra crossed on any other equine. The term Zorse is to used to describe the cross of a zebras stallion to a horse mare. Other terms seen are Zebroid, Zony (zebra x Pony) or Zeony. Zebra-donkey crosses are termed Zebroid, Zebrass, Zonkey or Ze-donk. A more romantic (but not technically accurate) term that has recently surfaced is "Golden Zebra", used for any zebra hybrid. The once popular term "Zebra mule" is no longer used either.

Where can I see a Zebroid?
Any local zoo is likely to know where you can go to see one. There's only 2 I know of in the UK, one of which (a zeedonk) can be seen at Colchester Zoo in Essex, he lives with the giraffes and other zebras! But in the US they seem to get bred by people. And occasionally occur in the semi-wild in Africa when donkeys get randy with local zebras!
