Apparently it wasn't just humans trying to find some Powerball tickets today.

Razzi, the zebra, and 15–year–old Casper the Shetland pony escaped from a petting zoo Wednesday.

The pair was spotted trotting through a shopping center parking lot shortly after 9:00 a.m.

The search continued for the animals until they were caught around 2:00 in the afternoon through a joint effort with the Parks Department, NYPD, and FDNY.

The animals have been returned to their owner's yard.
