An elephant living alone in a zoo for eight years and dubbed 'the world's loneliest elephant' is thriving after being relocated to a jungle.

This is the moment when safari operator Exaud Marandu witnessed the incredible sight of a herd of giraffes halting traffic to get over the road.

A neglected donkey, whose hooves were so overgrown they had twisted, is now on his journey to recovery.

The donkey was discovered by a member of the public who noticed the animal was in need. The Donkey Sanctuary sent Donkey Welfare Adviser Adele Crompton to its paddock near Huddersfield in West Yorkshire.

Though it may sound like a philosophical query, it is possible to answer this question with science. To do so, we need to take a look at the microbiology of the hairs that give zebras their dual-colored pattern.
