The escaped zebra has not been seen for two days, and it surprises the owner.

Escape Zebra Not Seen for Half a Day, Owner Remains Hopeful

The owner of Jyllands Park Zoo remains optimistic in the search, but is puzzled by the zebra's continued disappearance. The zoo owner, Ove Nordestgaard, was still optimistic over the phone.

Zoo owner Ove Nordestgaard received an evening call around 8:15 PM from someone who had heard zebra-like noises near Haunstrup Coal Mine, which is located about two kilometers from the zoological park.

- We were also flying drones over there yesterday, he says.

Therefore, he has high hopes that the zebra is hiding there.

- But we are betting on something positive happening today, he says.

- It's our hope.

He hangs up the phone, but at the moment it is mainly curious journalists who are calling.

And aside from an email about the sounds in the vicinity, he has not received a single inquiry from anyone who has seen the zebra in the past half day.

- The day before the phone rang non-stop, but that also fit with people seeing her on her way home from work, Ove Nordestgaard explains and adds:

- That's why we were a little surprised yesterday that we didn't have anything to chase after.

Ove Nordestgaard admits that the zebra may have traveled far if she indeed has plans for an adventure.

- Somewhere or other, it could well be that she has a sense of where she is. But I have some doubts about that, says the zoo owner.

He hopes she is hiding somewhere nearby.

New Zebra Stallion Caused Commotion

--------------------------------------

Initially, all three zebras were on the loose. Two were quickly tranquilized with dart guns and returned to the zoological park.

The new male in the herd, a stallion from Dortmund, was the cause of the commotion.

- There was a little fight in connection with them being put together, explains Ove Nordestgaard.

He adds that this is normal behavior.

- They always have to look at each other.

They had checked the zebras earlier, where everything was in perfect order.

Kristian Martin Christensen spotted the three zebras that were about to escape.

- But what happened half an hour later, where a colleague suddenly calls and says that there are three zebras on their way out of the parking lot, I don't know, says Ove Nordestgaard.

- In the first instance, I thought he was probably just joking, because he could easily make a joke, but then I could clearly hear in his voice that it was serious.

In connection with the conflict between the zebras, the latch to the enclosure had received a good kick, and the three zebras could thus escape.

If the escaped zebra is spotted, it is asked to contact Jyllands Park Zoo, which is also in close contact with Midt- and Vestjyllands Police.
