This is the zebra you’re looking for.
His name is Obi. And yes, it’s in honour of the Star Wars character, the Jedi master, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
The Grevy’s zebra was born last month at the Toronto Zoo, which promptly launched a naming contest for its “baby stripes.”
More than 7,500 people voted and selected a name based on a galaxy far, far away like previous zebra babies which were named Luke, Leia and Rey.

Obi and his mother, Tori, are doing well, the zoo said.
