Zorrillo


Range

Normal form - heterozygous (nZo)

The zorrillo marking normally resembles the white back stripe seen in striped skunks (Mephitis mephitis). In its minimal spread (shown in YELLOW) the stripe begins just above the forehead and usually don't go past the shoulder. In the maximum form (ZoZo) the light stripe covers the entire topline of the donkey completely (shown YELLOW+BLUE). The marking reaches the tail-switch and this area will also be covered in light hairs.



Maximum form - homozygous (ZoZo) | Minimal form - heterozygous (nZo)

The group is flexible when it comes to the looks of the markings (since nature doesn't always follow the rules and goes by *strict* lines), so as long as your markings are similar to the examples you shouldn't have any issues. As long as the marking is still visually identifiable everything is good in the hood.
NOTE - if too many people abuse this, rules will become stricter.
