A zebra escaped from a zoo in the South Korean capital Seoul on Thursday and wandered the streets of a residential area for three hours before authorities caught it and returned it to the zoo.
The footage shows stunned pedestrians watching the animal drive past cars, roam the road and stick its nose into trash cans.
