A truck hauling four privately owned zebras stopped near exit 32 on I-90 to secure the trailer when the zebras got free.

Troopers reported several people from the community came together to help corral the animals.

They were contained in a nearby fenced area until they could be captured and returned to the trailer.

One Zebra was reported to still be on the loose late last evening.

A posting on X by the Washington Department of Transportation read, "Hey zebras! The wildlife crossings are about 30 miles east of you."

State Patrol Trooper Rick Johnson posted on X, "This is a first for me" and called the event 'Crazy."

The truck was reportedly hauling the zebras to Montana.
