Is this for real?

A curious looking animal. It almost looks as if the photograph has been altered. Apparently this is a Zorse or a Hebra (they don't mention the sire as that would sort what to call it) named 'Eclyse' which is kept at the Safari Park in Schloss Holte-Stukenbrock, Germany.
Is the deliberate production and exhibition of such a creature (in today's modern zoo world) as bad as Tigons and Ligers? Yes...I think so.
