We just got in the eight newest Painted Ponies in!! They are gorgeous as usual. Today's feature is called Zorse: Hiding in Plain Sight. Zoologists tell us that the black and white stripes on a zebra were designed by evolution to confuse lions in the wild, making them all but invisible because they are indistinguishable from grass and brush until they move. Bringing a lighthearted sense of play to this concept, this mixed media artist from Santa Fe, New Mexico has created a hybrid creature a zebra/horse cross whose DNA creates a coat that retains the stripes of a zebra, while at the same time exhibiting the complete color spectrum visible to humans, the most fearsome predator or the planet.
