The plains zebras — equus quagga — are all adults. No information about their ownership or how they were acquired has been released.

“There’s still definitely a little bit of that nervousness of moving into a new environment.”

“Zebras aren’t usually found in Saskatchewan, so a lot of people don’t necessarily know how to take care of zebras and we’re just really thankful that we have the ability to do that here and to really help out the ministry in this aspect,” Mitchell said. As of Friday, the ministry said its investigation continues and it had no new updates for the public.

The herd was kept in the back of the zoo for the first week and a half or so, to make sure they were getting used to their environment and while the staff worked to gain their trust.
