Have they checked on the penguins?
Twist: All zebras were captured but the stripes are throwing off the counts.
For those not reading the article, it somehow gets even crazier:
The bizarre rescue effort involved a rodeo clown, who happened to be passing, local Whitney Blomquist told KOMO.
Rodeo clowns are trained to distract and somewhat manage bulls in rodeos. He was more of an expert than anyone else there.
A rodeo clown is more like a bull wrangler than a circus clown, for those who don’t know.
Fake news. Zebras aren’t real, they’re just horses painted to look that way, Big Zoo is lying to you, WAKE UP!!
There’s a video in the article by the way everyone! No video or pictures of the clown though.
I lived in North Bend for six years, and I’m not even a zebra. Nothing much ever happened there but the town, together with neighboring Snoqualmie, was used in some of the Twin Peaks filming, none of which involved zebras AFAIK. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_Peaks_(fictional_town)
Someone is playing Jumanji again.
You’ll never catch me, coppers!
LOL the caption of the photo called that the eastern outskirts of Seattle. You have to drive a full 45 minutes+ from Seattle to get to where this happened.
I think it’s a reasonable description to people who have only heard of Seattle.
I for sure wouldn’t volunteer to catch them. Zebras are notoriously mean animals.
And famously incapable of being domesticated.
So are bulls though, so I guess it was good that a rodeo clown got involved.
I didn’t know this. Searched “zebra temperament.” Checks out. Kill lions.
Is it missing or is it on a quest to avenge Harambe?
This made my day much brighter. Thank you.
