What is the plural of Zedonk? is it Zedonks, Zedonkies?

[mindbullets]

its zedonk, just like the plural of sheep is sheep.

Maybe this is just an alternative spelling, but The Oxford English Dictionary says it's 'zedonks'. In the late 1970s, according to an illustrative quote in the dictionary, there were only five of these creatures in existence, so the chance of even needing a plural is pretty remote!

zedonk (ZEE-dongk) The offspring of a male zebra and a female donkey. Yes, there is such a thing, and a zedonk is what you get, linguistically speaking, when you cross a zebra with a donkey. By the way, in case you need a synonym, the Oxford English Dictionary notes that you can use zonkey instead of zedonk. And while you'd be forgiven for assuming that a zebrass is the unfortunate result of sitting too long on certain lawn chairs, it's actually yet another name for this hybrid critter. (If you're still curious about the various results of mixing donkey genes--from asses to zedonks--drop by http://www.willman.com/muletrainer/mulefact.htm, which helpfully notes, among other things: "The father of our country, George Washington, was also the father of mule breeding in the Americas.")
