Last week's rare birth of a zedonk, or a cross between a zebra and a donkey, still has the Twitterverse melting in a pool of cuddly animal love. It made me remember a photo of a hybrid on our own farm. I snapped it four years ago with a disposable camera, a totally unexpected shot, and it's still one of my favorites. The mule's name is Sourdough; her mom is Macy, a mini-horse. The dad, or the sire, is a mini-donkey named Little Joe. We estimate the foal, or baby, is 12 hours old.
