It is the result of cross-breeding, generally a male zebra and a female horse (mare). The zorse is very horse-like in appearance as it inherits its shape, size, colour and temperament from its mother. The zorse tends to have short, coarse fur that can range in colour from tan to brown to black, with a darker mane and tail, and dark stripes on the body, inherited from the zebra parent.
