zonkeys

Donkey-zebra offspring

A zonkey is a hybrid animal produced by crossing a zebra with a donkey.

Like other zebra hybrids (zorses, zebroids), zonkeys typically display striped legs or partial striping on a donkey-colored body.

They are almost always sterile.

The word blends zebra and donkey.
