A zebra foal has had to be put to sleep at the Wild Place Project after it sustained injuries while playing.
Wallace suffered injuries after hitting a gate while playing on Tuesday, May 10. The Wild Place Project said that its animal team immediately provided care and called the Bristol Zoological Society’s veterinary team to attend.
The statement said that, despite their best efforts, his injuries were severe and the veterinary team made the sad and difficult decision to put him to sleep. Wallace was one of three zebras at Wild Place Project, alongside his mother Florence, and father, Peter.
