For this very last letter I am going to present to you several animal’s picture starting with the letter Z
First off of course is the « zèbre » which in English is a zebra.

Next off is the « zibeline » or marten or sable in English.

Now the zébu or simply zebu in English which is a domestic bovine.

Now this is an insect named « zygoptère » or a « demoiselle » in French which is aptly named a zygoptera in english.

And to finish off here comes the « zébrule » or the zebrule or zorse in English which is a cross between a zebra stallion and a horse mare.

And finally for the pièce de résistance here is the « zorille » or « ratel » which is simply named a zorilla in English and is actually the equivalent of a skunk (named a « putois » or « mouffette » in French). It is found in sub Sahara Africa and also Irak, India and Pakistan.

Wow, the zorse is something I hadn’t seen before.
