All week there have been hoax sightings of the zebra. She's been on a ferry in Puget Sound, at a Farmer's Market, on a hiking trail in Olympia. Total fun.

A similar incident had happened here a town a town a few years back.In a zoo a personnel was feeding a tiger.As usual he slightly opened the door of the cage to push the flesh in the cage.The tiger got up and proceeded towards the door.The frightened personnel held back leaving the door half open.The next second the tiger was out of the cage .The personnel entered in the cage to save himself.The visitors ran helter skelter.It took the concerned officials two hours to control the tiger and make him enter his cage.

@RasmaSandra Zebras are hot weather animals. Montana gets bitter cold, during the winter months.
