Zebras

This is Lord Walter Rothschild (1868-1937) with the zebra carriage he drove around London. Zebras are not easily domesticated, but it has been done. They are tamer when they are bred with horses, but as this video points out, zorses are not accepted by the zebras. Zebras are apparently a mean bunch - I read an account of a woman who reached through the bars at a zoo to pet the zebra and it bit off her finger!
