The zebra that has been roaming the streets of Bellevue and Hayfields in Pietermaritzburg has been spotted once again.
The zebra has been in search of a new home for the past few days after being kicked out of its herd. The young stallion was evicted from its home by the more dominant and older male zebra in its herd.

“The zebra has been spotted and I am on my way to keep an eye on him.
The vet is on his way to dart the zebra and, hopefully, by the end of the day, we can dart and remove the zebra,” he said late on Wednesday.
