Police in the Czech Republic are on the hunt for a dickhead prankster who painted this black horse to look like a zebra.

As well as spraying the poor bugger with paint, they also cut the horse's tail off.

The horse's owner told police that the perpetrator broke a lock to get into the horse's stable at night. By the time he discovered what had happened they had long gone, so he called in police to investigate the act of cruelty.

A police spokesperson said: "This event is very unpleasant for the owner but also for the horse. To remove the paint will be tedious and annoying for both. It will also take a while for the tail to grow back to its original length."

As well as being 'tedious', the paint could harm the horse if ingested and is likely to irritate the animal's skin.

If found the perpetrator could get up to three years in prison.
