In a bizarre story out of Armenia, a zoo was forced to correct the record after a prankster painted a donkey to look like a zebra and claimed the creature had escaped from their facility. According to a local media report, the "extraordinary incident" occurred this past Friday morning when what seemed to be a zebra was seen wandering down a main road in the county's capital city of Yerevan. The outlet indicated that the animal had somehow fled the city's zoo and that local authorities were working on wrangling the creature so it could be brought home. Later that day, however, the already odd story took a rather strange turn when the zoo issued a statement strongly contradicting the earlier report.
