=================================

Tilly’s owners at Eden Ostrich World, a modest visitor attraction on a farm near Penrith in northwestern England had been unaware of the pony’s exotic past life at a wildlife park, where she shared a field with a male zebra.
“She was fairly fat when we received her and we thought that she was getting fatter,” Ostrich World manager Karen Peet said Tuesday.
