  Very interesting – I never knew they did this. Beautiful in a different way. I especially like the first one. So are they smaller than horses? They look like they are but I can’t tell for sure.

  Wow that is cool. Are the crosses sterile or can they breed? I love the colors.

  Huh! Didn’t know they could cross breed them. Guess a horse is a horse, of course, of course. Or are you pulling our collective legs?

  They’re sterile Jerseygirl, as horses & zebras have a different number of chromosomes.
  
  Interesting fact: only possible to cross-breed if the sire is a zebra, otherwise doesn’t work. Also…Zorse is a nice idea but I want a zebra crossed with a shetland pony!!! Too cute!

  I love these guys! I’ve seen pics but never a real one. Apparently they are mostly kept for pets because the zebra in them makes them incredibly hard to train to ride. There is also a cross called a Zedonk. Can you guess what that is?

  Wow, those are great! I had no idea that was possible!
  
  Is that pinto one for real, though? It looks awfully photoshopped to me…

  As far as I thought finding the pics they are real, but it may not be?

  I’m gonna guess the pinto is not real. The only pics I’ve ever seen of the zorse is the brownish colour with black stripes, like the first pic.
