1982: Hillcrest Zoo in Clovis had a new attraction – a zebra.
The zebra, brought to Clovis from the Rio Grande Zoo in Albuquerque, was Hillcrest’s first zebra in at least 14 years, officials said.
The Clovis News-Journal published a front-page photo of Scotty Tredway, 5, and his sister, Cristy, as they watched the animal explore its new home.
