Let's get George Jefferson to track them down. He has no use for zebras.

Florida? We have already had sightings in northern Michigan, and they have destroyed the 2021 apple crop.

Simple. Turn loose five lions or leopards to find the zebras.

Prince George’s County is all black.
Zebras will never make it there.

This is my county, and I’m trying to figure out why someone here would have 39 zebras...
We have lots of horses and other agricultural animals; there are also some small petting zoos. I could even understand some reindeer - there’s a commercial use for that.
But 39 zebras?
