It was a heart-stopping moment at a zoo in eastern Spain as zookeepers and visitors looked on in horror when one newborn zebra foal stumbled into the water minutes after being born. Fortunately, the zookeepers were on hand to save it from drowning.

In early September 2018, a dramatic video clip was uploaded on YouTube showing a newborn zebra walking right into a watering hole in an enclosure at Bioparc Valencia zoo.
