  Spots ‘N Stripes Ranch
A Zonkey is a cross between a zebra stallion and a donkey jennet.
The zonkey is generally more easily bred for than the zorse as the donkey and zebra both communicate behaviorally using very similar language, whereas the horse language is somewhat different than the zebra's.
A zorse and a zonkey have a longer flight/fight range, meaning they are more cautious in general than a horse or donkey, and will run away from perceived danger more abruptly than a horse or donkey will.

Flibberty Gibbert's national animal is the zonkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the flib gibs.
