The second Z critter is the Zebrula, a cross between a male zebra and a female horse. Below are photos from Never Ending Story blog. Zebrula is also called Zorse, it is a zebroid, specifically the offspring of a zebra stallion and a horse mare.
I was going to include the Zemni, the blind mole rat (Spalax typhlus) which is native of Eastern Europe and Asia but I couldn't find a photo with no copyrights So I scraped the idea. Oh, before I forgot, do you know that mourning dove is also known as Zenaidura?

Who knew there lived a cross between a zebra and a horse, and that the contrast in colors would be so lovely? First time here, thanks to ABC, and I love your work. Amy
