Say hello to Ippo, the baby zonkey.
A zonkey, for those of you not in the know, is a zebra-donkey hybrid. Or, to put it more bluntly, the result of a male zebra (adopted from a failing zoo) getting randy with a rare breed of female donkey.
And it's ridiculously (or should that be ridonkulously?) cute.
“Ippo is the only one of his kind in Italy,” reserve employee Serena Aglietti told ANSA.
Which means, yup, there's potentially many more zonkeys out there in the big wide world for us to fall in love with. But, in the meantime, let's take a moment to admire Ippo in all of his fabulous faded stripy glory.
He's the bestest zonkey, zebonkey, zebrinny, zebrula, zebrass and zedonk we've ever seen.
Ever.
