A missing zebra named "Ed' who ran away from his home in Christiana Tennessee in early June was found safely in the same city after Ed managed to avoid being captured for about one week when a private helicopter, volunteer drone operators and search crews were able to capture the zebra on Sunday June 6 in the woods.
A helicopter from Volunteer Drone Services used a net to capture the zebra and return the animal to his home safe and sound.
The owners of Ed are grateful to reunite with their pet after Ed went missing for a week.

I also saw that on the evening news. It was amazing to see the zebra being carried by the helicopter.

I did see that story on the evening news myself. I was amazed to see a zebra being flown hoisted in the air myself.

I have been getting a update occasionally on this story from a YouTube creator that lives near there. I'm glad the animal is okay. I guess they two. I wonder why the other didn't get out too.

I have heard of "Mr Ed" the talking horse, but this takes the cake, "Ed" the talking zebra.
It seems to be possible to keep all manor of animals as pets in the United Sates. They should be properly penned in though, as nobody wants to be chased by Mr ED, the talking zebra.

I'm glad the zebra was returned to its owners. I hope they have a large area for it to run in.

That is what I was thinking who would want to own a zebra in the first place?
