I am partial to the image of Mrs. Hayes on a zebra side-saddle. A terrible idea, as the excerpt from her book _The Horsewoman_ quoted here shows: https://susannaforrest.wordpress.com/category/authors-and-books/mrs-hayes/
If you go to the link for Mashable from this article, there is a photo of 1 - Mrs. Martin Johnson. Hahaha, very funny..The caption suggests Mrs. Johnson is 'riding' the zebra. Sitting on it obviously, but riding it? Take a good look at the Zebra's bridle, it is put on backwards! Obviously this arrogant woman thought she'd make quite a statement by riding a zebra. But actually she looks like: an arrogant woman...who is an idiot! Oh yeah, love her attire - the shorts go really well with the socks (snicker, snicker).

Zebras were used for riding and driving up to the 40s when the wsr broke out. Afterwards, they were used for furniture covering,throws, or wa) hangings. Hides werechic in the 60s. Could be bought for 25 dollars. I know, I was in Florida at the import store. I wanted to purchase some ivory and hides. My mother had a fit and we went home. She caused a scene. Now Ringling Bros has a few. So has the exotic market.
