Man rides zebra to pub

A race horse trainer surprised his neighbours by riding a zebra to the pub.

Bill Turner, who lives near Sherborne, Dorset, bought the animal, named Zebedee, because he was curious to learn if they could be trained like horses.

He said: "I ride him with a saddle and I take him out to the village.



"The first time I did it a few people outside the pub ran back in thinking their beer was a bit strong.

"Now he really likes going out and along the country lanes and his ears prick up."

At 14 months old, Zebedee is only half grown, but can already canter and Bill hopes he will learn to jump.
