Tuxedo — *The beginning - 1920s:* Billionaire *William Randolph Hearst* \- newspaper owner. decided to build the BIGGEST private zoo in the world up on the mountain. Between 1920 and 1930 he imported from Africa: *more than 100 zebras* \- mainly Grevy's Zebra and Plains Zebra. It was the Hearst Zoo collection. *The end of the zoo - 1937:* The Great Depression broke Hearst. He didn't have money to keep the animals. He donated almost everything to zoos in LA and San Francisco, and sold others. But the zebras ran away / were released. As they are very resistant, they have adapted perfectly to the dry hills of California, which look like the African savannah. *From 1937 to today:* They turned savage again. They have never been domesticated, they live freely on the *Hearst Ranch* \- an 82,000-hectare farm that still belongs to the Hearst family. Today the herd has *around 120-150 zebras* . You see them from Highway 1, between Cambria and San Simeon, grazing with the cows. They are protected by California law.
