A zedonk (a zebra/donkey hybrid) at a farm market in Spring Lake, Fla., attacked a worker last weekend, biting the man on his feet and legs as he attempted to crawl away.

Hernando Today reported that James Oleson, 34, was painting an outer perimeter fence when the zedonk ducked under its own enclosure fence to bite him on the foot. Oleson was knocked to the ground and the animal continued to bite at his feet and legs as he crawled under the outer fence. The attack resulted in cuts and bruises.

Oleson received a tetanus shot and the zedonk will be quarantined for 14 days. Read about zoonotic disease potentially transmitted from equids to humans via bites.  

Along with the citrus business, Boyett’s Grove is also an animal attraction with exotic birds, monkeys, alligators, pigs, and deer. And at least one zedonk
