Zebra In College Prank Sent To Midwest Zoo

Barcode Let Loose On Oxford, Ga., Campus In April

The zebra that was at the center of a metro Atlanta college prank is now in a zoo in another state.

A zebra, known as Barcode, was stolen and set loose at Emory University at Oxford as a prank on April 23, 2008.

Barcode and another Zebra named Jazz were taken from Curtis and Sherry Jackson on December 12, 2008 because they didn't have proper wildlife permits.

The zebras were taken to a zoo in the Midwest.

State officials say the Jacksons had let their permit for Barcode lapse and never applied for a permit for Jazz.
