The zebra was one of four that escaped on April 28 from a trailer near North Bend in Washington state, Regional Animal Services of King County said in a media release. While the other three zebras were captured within a few hours, a mare remained on the loose. The mare “was safely rescued on Friday evening in the Riverbend neighborhood after being on the run for nearly six days,” animal services said. Shug’s owner reportedly had stopped just off Interstate 90 in the North Bend area to fix an issue with the trailer when the animals escaped, animal services said. The zebra’s days-long escape spawned memes and jokes, with local government agencies pitching in with edited images of the zebra around the state.

Vorbim despre un câine fără stăpân din Statele Unite, care a furat de cinci ori o jucărie din pluș în formă de unicorn, dintr-un magazin din Kenansville, un orășel din Carolina de Nord. Doar că agenta care a venit să aresteze infractorul recidivist a fost atât de fermecată de hoțul patruped, încât i-a cumpărat jucăria înainte de a-l aduce la adăpost. Acolo, hoțul vagabond s-a acomodat imediat, încântat că-l are alături de el pe prietenul unicorn. Botezat Sisu, simpaticul cățel a devenit rapid celebru pe pagina de internet a adăpostului, de unde a și fost adoptat a doua zi și a plecat spre noua lui casă, împreună cu unicornul din pluș.
