It really does... But you would think Yahoo would do some research before they put something like that on their website, wouldn't you?

I don't believe it's a PS. It was a news item on one of the morning cable news programs, ABC I believe. They had a video and interview with the German "trainer".

The video was to consistant to be a PS or other image altering software (notice the slight tan spot on the inside of the right front leg). Could have been "painted", but I doubt it.

These "breeds" have been around since the early 1900's and showed up in side-shows. But not to this degree of difference. Now adays with DNA mixing, why not???

I think it's either a Photoshop job, or worse, a lousy paint job. Take a closer look at it.

Where's 06?

Click on "Half Horse Half Zebra-Hebra" in the link provided above. That's the video that I saw this morning.
