Pet Zebra Zeus Escapes Again

Summary:

PLACER COUNTY, CA – A zebra that has become a familiar sight in Placer County was on the loose again Monday, but animal services say the situation ended safely.

Placer County Animal Services confirmed that “Zeus the zebra,” who is new to the Lincoln area, escaped from his enclosure again but was later found wandering a roadway just north of Lincoln and returned home. Zeus was located on Monday along West Wise Road between Gladding and McCourtney, the California Highway Patrol’s Auburn office said.

Multiple officers responded and used portable panels to corral the animal into a trailer. There were previous sightings of Zeus on the loose over the weekend, according to animal services, which said the weekend storm activity was likely the reason Zeus was able to escape on Friday.
